International Coastal Clean-Up Day 2024

The International Coastal Clean-up Day is celebrated annually and aims to raise awareness on the issue of marine litter. It is a global event that promotes local clean-up actions on beaches, coastal areas, rivers, lakes, and other waterways.

In 2024, we will celebrate this initiative with a week of clean-up activities, between 21 and 29 September. For the sixth year running, Oceano Azul Foundation invites all Portuguese organisations and entities to organise clean-up actions with the aim of mobilising civil society.

For the sixth year running, the Oceano Azul Foundation is inviting all organisations and entities in mainland Portugal and the archipelagos to organise clean-up actions with the aim of mobilising civil society.

An initiative organised in partnership with the European Union as part of the #EUBeachCleanup campaign.

The ocean is global, the action is local!
