Support California’s largest annual Volunteer event!

The 42nd annual California Coastal Cleanup Day is Saturday, September 19th from 9 AM to Noon. Join your friends and neighbors at the Carmel River State Beach to remove trash from the shore and inland waterway. Help protect people and wildlife by eliminating plastic pollution before it can cause any more harm.

We will provide cleanup supplies, so please bring sturdy shoes, water, sun protection, and a positive attitude!

Thanks to Save Our Shores and the California Coastal Commission for coordinating these events across the region and state. Thanks to our partner, the Monterey Audubon Society, for organizing this event!
