Annual Coast and Ocean Report


OPC’s work is guided by the 2026–2030 Strategic Plan: Safeguarding Our Coast and Ocean for All Californians. We are committed to reporting annually on implementation of our strategic priorities and providing an overview of critical issues and stressors impacting California’s coast and ocean. Read our annual reports for a retrospective of activities and accomplishments, plus indicators in our 2022 and 2023 reports that provide a snapshot of coast and ocean health in California.
