Ocean Skills and Science for the Next Generation
Surf, swim, snorkel, and education for kids 6–14 in Santa Barbara.
Connection over competition.
The ocean instantly connects youth with wild nature, promoting a healthy body, a curious mind, and a reason to protect the coast. Through ocean-based recreation we mentor kids to learn, have fun, and create real relationships.

What families say about Sea League
“”Sea League completely transformed how my daughter interacts with the ocean. She used to be timid, but now she's the first one running into the surf. The mentors are incredible.

Mentors your kids will truly look up to
Our coaches are college students who are certified lifeguards, skilled watermen and women, and close enough in age that a ten-year-old can picture a version of themselves as an ocean steward.
