Playing with Waves: Empowering
Coastal Communities Through Surfing

"Cholan gon gowazi" translates to "Playing with Waves" and that’s exactly what we’re passionate about! At Playingwithwaves.org, we are dedicated to connecting coastal communities in Pakistan with the ocean, fostering a love for surfing while ensuring safety in the water. Since 2015, with the support of the surfing community in Southern England, we’ve been working to uplift local coastal areas through surf coaching and essential water safety training. Our mission is to create a sustainable surf and beach safety program that empowers locals, promotes ocean awareness, and opens doors to new opportunities through water sports.
