Shelter Cove is an unincorporated residential community located in Southern Humboldt on the Lost Coast. The Resort Improvement District No 1 is a special purpose district established in 1965 that manages several aspects of Shelter Cove including its volunteer fire department. The Shelter Cove Fire Department provides emergency services such as fire protection, emergency medical and ocean rescue for a 49-square-mile district with around 700 homes and buildings including hotels, businesses, public beaches, and an airport. It averages 200 calls for service every year. Its mission statement reads, "The mission of the Shelter Cove Fire Department is to provide the upmost level of medical fire and rescue services to the residents and visitors of Shelter Cover."
