The Shoreline Project Pembrokeshire
Coastal Education, Conservation & Inclusive Surf Therapy
Beyond The Shoreline is Outer Reef’s community project helping more Pembrokeshire families access the coast through ocean confidence, surf therapy, conservation, coastal education and inclusive beach-based activities.
The project has already brought together more than 300 local families, creating opportunities for people of different ages, backgrounds and abilities to connect with the sea in a safe, welcoming and meaningful way.
Helping More People Feel At Home By The Sea
The Shoreline Project was created to make Pembrokeshire’s coast more accessible, welcoming and meaningful for local families and community groups. It brings together surf therapy, coastal education, environmental awareness and practical access to the water.
From small community gatherings to larger monthly events, the project is helping people build confidence, learn new skills, understand the coastline and enjoy the wellbeing benefits of the sea.
Ocean Confidence & Wellbeing
Surf therapy sessions help participants build confidence, enjoy movement, connect with nature and experience the sea in a safe and supportive environment.
Learning About The Coast
Workshops and beach sessions encourage families to understand tides, wildlife, marine protection, beach safety and how to look after local coastal spaces.
Access For More People
The project supports participants who may not normally access surf lessons or coastal activities, helping remove barriers through support, equipment and guidance.
Making The Ocean More Accessible To Everyone
“Seeing over 300 families come together through our Beyond The Shoreline project has been incredibly rewarding. This initiative represents everything we stand for — making the ocean accessible to everyone, regardless of background or ability.”
Dean, Outer Reef
