📍 Lambert’s Bay, Western Cape

Nestled along the wild West Coast of South Africa, Lambert’s Bay is rich in ocean beauty, but beneath lies a community weathering deep socio-economic storms. With nearly 32% of residents unemployed and more than 47% living below the poverty line, the struggle here is generational and systemic. Education dropouts, substance abuse, and limited access to opportunity threaten to define another chapter of hardship for youth growing up here.

At Project Sunwave, we believe this doesn’t have to be the story. Every young person- regardless of geography or income- deserves a shot at building a life of dignity, purpose, and possibility.

That’s why we’re creating consistent, empowering spaces for growth, learning, and healing. From ocean therapy and literacy programs to skills training and environmental awareness, our work is rooted in hope and designed for impact.

We’re not just teaching swimming, we’re leaving no one behind.
