Found a tangle of fishing line wrapped around driftwood. Cut it up and bagged it so birds can't get caught.

Kew-Balmy Beach, Zone C, Sep 13, 2026
Busy weekend left a lot behind: cans, food wrappers, a single flip-flop. Looks much better now.

Bluffer's Park Beach, Zone D, Sep 11, 2026
Quiet morning sweep. Small plastics mostly, the kind you only see when you crouch down.


Sunnyside Beach, Zone B, Sep 9, 2026
Storm washed up a lot of foam pieces near the rocks. Got most of it with a sieve.

Broken glass near the path, so watch your step. Cleared what we could find.


Kew-Balmy Beach, Zone H, Sep 3, 2026
Plastic bags caught in the dune grass. Took a while to untangle them without damaging the plants.

Short one after work. One bag, mostly straws and lids from the snack bar.

Water bottles, a deflated beach ball, and about a hundred bread tags. Where do they all come from?


Cherry Beach, Zone C, Aug 28, 2026
Low tide showed a line of bottle caps we would have missed. Filled a whole jar with them.

School group joined us today. Thirty pairs of hands make short work of a long beach.

A lot of rope and net fragments after the swell. Heavy bag, worth it.


Bluffer's Park Beach, Zone B, Aug 22, 2026
Picked up around the bins where the wind scatters everything. Lids, cups, napkins.

Bluffer's Park Beach, Zone C, Aug 20, 2026
Sunrise sweep before the crowds. Mostly cans and cigarette butts from last night.

Bluffer's Park Beach, Zone D, Aug 18, 2026
Found three single-use barbecues tucked behind the rocks. Carried them out with the rest.


Kew-Balmy Beach, Zone A, Aug 16, 2026
Microplastics along the wrack line again. Slow work with a sieve, but the sand looks right now.

Cherry Beach, Zone B, Aug 14, 2026
Two of us, two bags, forty minutes. The far end near the pier was the worst of it.

Woodbine Beach, Zone D, Aug 12, 2026
Wet wipes and cotton buds near the outfall after the rain. Gloves were a must today.
