International Coastal Cleanup

Join Keep Manatee Beautiful for the International Coastal Cleanup, the world's largest volunteer effort dedicated to protecting our oceans, rivers, bays, and coastlines. With cleanup locations across Manatee County, there's a place for everyone to make a difference while helping remove litter before it reaches our waterways.

Each cleanup begins at 9:30 AM, with volunteers checking in at their selected location. Please wear comfortable clothing, closed-toe shoes, sunscreen, and bring a reusable water bottle, hat, and sunglasses. Cleanup supplies, including gloves, grabbers, and buckets, will be provided.

After the cleanups conclude, all volunteers are invited to join us for a community celebration at the Coquina Beach Cafe (2650 Gulf Dr S, Bradenton Beach, FL 34217). It's

a great opportunity to connect with fellow volunteers, celebrate your impact, and help us continue building a cleaner, healthier Manatee County.

Together, we can protect the places we love—one piece of litter at a time.
