We recently had the opportunity to present a proposal for conserving the vital surf ecosystem of Punta Conejo which includes mangroves, wetlands, marshes, beaches, and surf zones to ensure the local population's well-being. We thank the local communities of the Punta Conejo area for sharing their stories and showing great interest in conserving their resources for present and future generations.

This month, Save The Waves hosted another successful workshop with the 12 World Surfing Reserves. With a focus on the Blue Economy and Blue Finance, WSR leaders shared their experiences in ensuring conservation efforts are supported by thriving coastal economies and learned new ways to ensure that the conservation of surf ecosystems is correctly valued. Dr. Jess Ponting, the Director of the Center for Surf Research at SDSU joined the workshop to present his latest research on sustainable surf tourism and how surf communities can protect their coastal resources and ensure the economic benefits from tourism support local livelihoods and the environment.

Born and raised in Santa Cruz, CA, Chachi started surfing at 12 and switched to bodyboarding after falling in love with sand bottom closeouts at Fingerbowl and Its Beach. He began pursuing photography in his early 20s. In 2014, Chachi won the Surfing Magazine – Follow the Light Foundation award. Shortly after, he secured a senior staff photographer position for Surfer Magazine where he worked until the magazine closed its doors in Fall 2020. Chachi loves shooting imagery from the water and tries to compose his images to showcase all the unique landscapes that he’s been fortunate enough to travel to.
