Black Surf Club Santa Cruz focuses on supporting Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) gain access, familiarity and joy outdoors through surfing, outings to the beach, community building, and other outdoor recreational sports. Their curation of safe spaces for BIPOC communities to enjoy the ocean, surfing, and outdoor spaces is in response to the often siloed experience of BIPOC individuals of living in Santa Cruz, California and the lack of access to public spaces. In collaboration with local youth leaders, community members, and a number of local organizations they also engage in local surf-permit access advocacy efforts.
