About Us

Based on the mounting challenges facing coastal Councils and strong demand from the sector for a more collective approach, the ‘South Australia Coastal Councils Alliance’ was formally launched in October 2019 with the initial objectives of providing;

1. An informed, coordinated advocacy voice: and,

2. A forum for information sharing and networking on coastal management issues facing Councils across SA.
