21 September 2024: International Coastal Cleanup Day!

International Coastal Cleanup Day is a global movement that began over 30 years ago by the Ocean Conservancy, bringing communities together with a shared mission to clean up our coastlines. Now, it's time for the Overberg community to do our part!

Meeting Point: Danger Point Lighthouse
Time: 09:00
Duration: 2 hours
What to bring: Comfortable shoes, sunscreen, hats/caps, water, gloves, and litter pickers.

Contact person: Pinkey Ngewu

By participating, you’ll help protect our precious ecosystems, like the vibrant marine life at Dyer Island, ensuring they thrive for generations to come. Let's roll up our sleeves and make a positive impact together!
