About Surf First Aid
The first and only surfing app designed to “Keep the Surfer Healthy and Safe”.
The SURF FIRST AID app was specifically developed to help surfers and watersports enthusiasts keep themselves and others healthy and safe. We believe that nobody should die in conditions where prevention and first aid could have been the difference between life and death.
The app gives every waterman and woman the possibility to learn about different aspects of surf-relevant first aid and safety topics, take multiple quizzes and learn on the go, and provide rapid access to local emergency numbers around the globe for the travelling surfer.
We want to build a strong global community of surfing first responders, ultimately making the ocean, beaches and reefs worldwide a safer for everyone.
Together we can achieve this goal!
