Join Save Our Shores for the largest cleanup and volunteer event of the year!
Annual Coastal Cleanup Day returns for it’s 40th Anniversary on Saturday, September 21 from 9am-12pm at sites around the Monterey Bay. Annual Coastal Cleanup Day is an amazing opportunity to get outside with your fellow community members, clean up local habitats, and prevent trash from becoming harmful marine debris. We hope you will join the thousands of volunteers worldwide that will be participating this year!

Interested in leading one of our cleanup sites? Each year we coordinate between 50-70 cleanup sites throughout Santa Cruz and Monterey counties. This event would not be possible without community members who volunteer as a site captain. Site captains take on the role of leading a cleanup event at one of our sites, this entails bringing cleanup supplies provided by SOS to the location, checking in volunteers, providing the safety and data collection instructions, and returning all supplies, waivers, and data to Save Our Shores after the cleanup event. Learn more and sign up to lead one of our cleanup sites!
