What We Do

The Encinitas Lifesaving Association is the nonprofit arm of the Encinitas Ocean Lifeguards, serving our community by promoting water safety awareness, providing learn to swim programs for youth in underserved communities, and supporting professional education in open water lifesaving standards.

We've accomplished a lot in 2022, with more to come:
