Welcome to Great Southern WA DSA
The Disabled Surfers Association is a not-for-profit organisation and its sole aim is to give people with varying disabilities the opportunity to have a safe, happy and dignified surfing experience - come and experience it for yourself. We need helpers for jobs both in and out of the surf - the more, the merrier!
