WATCH VIDEO TRAILER

Lost Jewel of the Atlantic is part of the continuing effort by Save the Waves Coalition to educate governments who propose building along the shore that world class surfing waves and natural coastline are precious resources worth protecting and maintaining. In 2002 the government of Madeira, a Portuguese island off the coast of Morocco, began a series of seawall projects that put several of the islands best surf spots in jeopardy. This documentary tells the story of the triumphs and losses in the struggle to preserve the island's natural heritage.
