Het Surf Project: Zandvoort, Ouddorp, Camperduin, Ter Heijde, the Netherlands

‘Het Surf Project’ teaches children with Down syndrome, autism and ADHD how to surf. Surfing has a positive effect on the development of the children and gives their self esteem a tremendous boost.

‘Het Surf Project’ was founded in 2014 and has expanded to four different locations along the shores of the Dutch coast. Lessons are adapted to the needs of the special group we’re working with. The children are arranged into clearly divided smaller teams coached by certified instructors. The children are also coached, one-on-one, by professional volunteers (over 100 in 2017) in and out of the water. All of our coaches and volunteers love sharing their passion for the ocean with the children.

Together with a team of psychiatrists and psychologists ‘Het Surf Project’ also runs studies on the effects of surfing. It is touching to see that even after three lessons a noticeable difference is visible within the children. Surfing positively influences the interaction between family members. Moms, dads, grandfathers and grandmothers are all proudly cheering and supporting the children from the beach. By doing so the children take their newly built self esteem home and apply it into their everyday lives.
