Surfonomics is a Thing
- "Surfonomics is the use of natural resource economics to better understand the values and spending associated with surfing. Surfing is typically free, but still has tremendous value to surfers and we can measure that using economics methods. Surfers also spend money when they visit surf spots and are an important, but typically under valued, part of coastal tourism. At Surfrider, we can use that information to help justify coastal protection." - quote from Surfrider CEO Chad Nelsen in this article in Whalebone.
