Join us for our Autumn beach clean and litter survey at Porthlysgi Bay. Litter pickers, bags, survey sheets etc are all provided, just dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.

There is no parking at this beach, you can walk from Porthclais, or from the layby at the end of the Treginnis road, or park at Lower Treginnis Farms for City Children and walk 20 minutes to the beach. The walk along the coast path is rocky and uneven.

We will carry out the clean if it is breezy or a little damp but it will be cancelled if there are strong winds or heavy rain.

Also worth knowing…

What to bring: We’d recommend you pack a rucksack with a few essentials like sunscreen, waterproofs, hand sanitiser, and perhaps some snacks and a drink (in a reusable bottle, of course).

What to wear: If you're picking up litter with your hands it's worth wearing a strong pair of gloves - like gardening gloves - just to make sure you're protected. Sturdy shoes are a must for protection too.

Under 16s: To comply with our insurance, volunteers under 16 will need to be accompanied by an adult who will be asked to sign a parental / guardian consent form on the day by the beach clean organiser.
