24th Annual California Coastal Cleanup Day

Description:  Mark your calendar for the biggest volunteer cleanup event in San Diego County and join together with your community in keeping our ocean, coastlines and waterways clean and free of debris.

Each year, San Diego Coastkeeper (SDCK), I Love A Clean San Diego (ILACSD) and the California Coastal Commission partner to coordinate more than 60 coastal, inland and underwater cleanup sites throughout San Diego County as part of California Coastal Cleanup Day (CCD), an annual statewide and international cleanup effort to support the marine environment.

Last year 6,212 volunteers participated in removing 94,358 pounds of trash and recyclables from San Diego County and Baja California beaches. CCD is a great way for the community to help restore our beaches and waterways, and learn how individual action can make a tremendous difference to keep our beaches and watersheds pollution free.
