The Surfrider Foundation San Diego County Chapter and San Diego Coastkeeper coordinate cleanups three times a month. On the second Saturday, we cleanup a North County beach (Oceanside to Torrey Pines), on the third Saturday we host a cleanup at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas and on the fourth Saturday of every month we cleanup a beach in South County (La Jolla to Imperial Beach).

For a complete this of these cleanup dates and locations download our 2012 Beach Ceanup Calendar or for a list with directions click on the 2012 Beach Cleanup Calendar with Directions.

PLASTIC BAGS PHASED OUT AT BEACH CLEANUPS. In an effort to send less extra stuff to the landfill we are asking that beach cleanup volunteers bring their own reusable bucket or bag from home. Also, please bring work or garden gloves to use rather then then latex/disposable ones if possible. We will continue to have gloves and a small supply of bags on hand until we can fully get the word out and look to provide reusable supplies in the future.

To help out at an already coordinated cleanup, all you have to do is show up. For all beach cleanups, please wear comfortable clothes, closed toed shoes and sunscreen. Bring gardening or work gloves if you have them. If not, we would be happy to provide you with latex gloves if needed. We also provide the bags, hand sanitizer and other essentials for cleaning up trash. Please feel free to bring your own reusable bag or bucket and gloves to help minimize our plastic footprint.

Finally, if you have a group of over 25 please print this waiver and sign in advance of the cleanup to help expedite the registration process. The waiver form can be downloaded here!
