Welcome

Laguna Ocean Foundation is a non-profit 501(C) (3) organization founded in 2003 by a small group of concerned Laguna Beach residents in response to the VISION 2030 report.

The Foundation is actively involved in coastal resource management through all of our activities and programs. Our initial program, the TideWater Docent program, has trained over 200 volunteers to provide interpretive education at local intertidal areas. Other programs and accomplishments include the Tidepool Education Program at Treasure Island, the Whale Tail Tidepool Education Program at Heisler Park, initiating the 2008 Shorebird Monitoring Program, publishing the results of the High School Rocky Intertidal Assessment Program, conducting an Environmental Impact Report training and workshop, collaborating with the Orange County Marine Protected Area Council to provide an enforcement training for local officers, conducting a teacher development workshop, and the adoption of two city ordinances written by LOF members to continue to aid in the protection of our local resources.

Laguna Ocean Foundation's mission is to preserve and protect the beaches, intertidal zone, watersheds, and ocean waters of Laguna Beach and to educate the public about these resources.
