Make a Difference With Clean Ocean Action's 2021 Beach Sweeps

Once again, Clean Ocean Action is gearing up to help keep our beaches clean this spring.

Volunteers will gather at beaches all over the Jersey Shore with gloves and trash bags to help keep our beautiful beaches clean on Saturday, April 17th.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancelation of their 2020 spring beach sweeps but over 4,000 people turned-out to help keep our beaches clean in the fall, according to The Press of Atlantic City.

For this spring's sweeps, you must pre-register and you must have a mask. You may be required to take a temperature check at some locations and social distancing will be enforced.
