When we’re not out catching waves in Rockaway or enjoying the beach at Fort Tilden, we turn our passion into protection. Our chapter is 100% volunteer run and our success is down to our network of 400+ dedicated members who take time out of their busy lives to protect what they love.




With one dedicated staff member on our team, the work of Surfrider NYC is largely made possible by our incredible volunteers. We're looking for dedicated, passionate volunteers to take the lead on Surfrider NYC's local programs and campaigns. Are you interested in becoming a volunteer leader?
