The National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) is a registered non-profit organization that is committed to drowning prevention and focused on saving lives, changing lives and creating futures for those threatened by drowning in South Africa. They are unique in South Africa as the only non-profit organization focusing exclusively on safeguarding lives and livelihoods in South African waters through education, prevention, and rescue operations. 

Sea Rescue’s mandate to save lives on South African waters extends to animals as well. A host of turtles, seals, birds and whales have been assisted in a variety of rescue scenarios. These rescues extend to man’s best friend too, with a number of dogs being saved from drowning.
