Coastal Action is a non-profit environmental organization based in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. We work mainly throughout the South Shore region of the province, however, some of our projects reach across Atlantic Canada.

For over 29 years, our mission has been to protect and restore the environment through research, education, action, and community engagement. We're very much a 'boots on the ground' type of organization with a strong focus on research, monitoring, restoration, and education.
Our work falls mainly within our five teams. Get to know the teams and learn more about our projects and programs!

Coastal Action acknowledges that we live and work on Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) first signed with the British Crown in 1725.  
As a charitable organization, we depend on government and non-government funding to conduct our research, education, and action projects. We would like to thank all our partners, supporters, and funders, past and present.
