Water Safety, Health & Wellness for the Coast
The Coastside Aquatics Center is a recently established non-profit organization that aims to promote water safety, health, and wellness through aquatics. It was founded by members of the community who shared a vision of bringing the many benefits of an aquatics center to the community and making water safety skills accessible to all.
Water Safety Vision
Given our dangerous coastline, learning life-saving water safety skills is crucial. However, there are only a few public swimming pools available to the community, and swim lessons are often too expensive, which limits access for many.
Last summer, with the support of our county sheriff Christina Corpus, free swimming lessons were made available to our youth. About 100 children received lessons during those sessions, which were held at the outdated pool at Half Moon Bay High School. Although the pool was less than ideal, it was a good start for our community and youth. However, without continued access to a swimming pool, those newly learned skills can't be improved.
