Coastal Cleanup Day
September 17, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm PDT
Join us for Coastal Cleanup Day on Saturday, September 17th. The largest volunteer effort in California, Coastal Cleanup Day is our day to give back to the ocean, beaches, and creeks that make Santa Barbara County such a wonderful place to live. Get outside, enjoy nature, and be part of the solution to ocean pollution!
Volunteers of all ages can participate at any of the 2022 cleanup sites. Pre-registration is not required, but is encouraged. Visit our website to register: https://exploreecology.org/coastal-cleanup-day/
Each site will have a captain on hand to provide necessary instructions and supplies. You can bring your own gloves, buckets, and other reusable cleanup supplies to lessen the plastic footprint of this event.
If you can’t make the cleanup on the 17th, we encourage you to cleanup any time during the month of September and your cleanup data will be included as part of the Coastal Cleanup Day results!
Santa Barbara County Coastal Cleanup Day is brought to you by Explore Ecology and our partner the County of Santa Barbara Resource Recovery and Waste Management, with support from Project Clean Water and the Cities of Santa Barbara, Goleta, and Solvang. The California Coastal Commission organizes the statewide event and the international event is organized by the Ocean Conservancy.
