“Being born on the coast and our passion for surfing kept us in permanent contact with the sea, making us direct spectators of how we were destroying it. Indiscriminate and unconscious consumption is causing damage not only in the oceans but throughout the planet. At basq we are aware that the planet is in danger and we have decided to take action and do our bit to protect it. We seek to do no harm and benefit the environment through our products, practices, and benefits.”
