GCWSR will seek to preserve & protect the Surf zone & celebrate our history & culture. It embraces the beach and surfing lifestyle and all those who enjoy it.

A Gold Coast World Surfing Reserve from Burleigh to Snapper is there to protect and preserve our breaks, remove the threat and celebrate our history, culture and champions. A GCWSR would not close beaches to any particular group and works in with all pre-existing beach and surfing events, boardriding clubs, surf lifesaving carnivals, pros and recreational surfers alike. This is about protecting our best coastal asset for future generations for all those that appreciate what the Coast has to offer and the wonderful natural quality of life.

One of the original surf activists and anti-contest, anti- commercial environmentalist John Scott from Steamers Lane Santa Cruz California who moved to Lennox Head in 1970 shaped boards for Phil Myers & Brad Myers. Hung a sign on the Lennox Head fence that said, " Don't destroy what you came to enjoy." Thanks Matt Warsaw from Encyclopedia of Surf.
