Beach Cleanups
Help Keep our Beaches Healthy and Thriving
Surfrider's Beach Cleanup initiative passionately safeguards our pristine coastlines with the help of dedicated volunteers. We organize regular cleanups to keep beaches vibrant and free of pollutants, involving the community in this crucial effort. Together, we drive meaningful environmental change, nurturing a culture of stewardship for our planet. Join our committed volunteers in this important mission to preserve our precious marine habitats.
We couldn't be more stoked to share the epic win from our July 5th clean-up event—where a rad crew of volunteers from all corners of the state joined forces to rid our beaches of a whopping 130,000 pounds of trash! A huge shoutout to our rockstar partners @wastateparks, @coastsavers, Defenders of the Coast, and @CityofOceanShores for their amazing support. This triumph not only showcases our dedication but also honors the incredible teamwork of our allies in this monumental mission.
