coastal cleanup
Shoreline trash removal
A coastal cleanup is an organized effort to remove litter and debris from beaches, shorelines, and coastal waters.
These events typically involve volunteers collecting trash—plastic bottles, fishing line, cigarette butts—that washes ashore or gets left behind by beachgoers.
The nonprofit hosts an annual coastal cleanup every September.
