Newquay Harbour

Monthly Beach Clean (June) | Newquay Watersports Centre

Join Newquay Watersports Centre and the local community for a beach clean and litter survey at Newquay Harbour as part of the Marine Conservation Society’s Great British Beach Clean. As a watersports centre based right on the harbour, this is the coastline we work, surf, paddle, swim and coasteer in every day. This beach clean is about looking after not just the beach itself, but the wider harbour, our working environment and the ocean that connects us all. We’ll be cleaning the harbour area we all use throughout the season, helping stop harmful litter from reaching the sea while collecting important data that contributes to national marine conservation research. We’d love to see local residents, families, businesses, visitors and holiday makers getting involved. Whether you can spare 20 minutes or stay for the whole session, every piece of litter collected makes a difference. It’s also a great chance to meet others in the community who care about keeping Newquay’s coastline clean and healthy. Please meet at Newquay Watersports Centre, located in Newquay Harbour Car Park. We’ll begin the beach clean promptly at 10:30, so please arrive a little earlier to sign in. We will provide litter pickers, gloves and reusable bags. If you have your own gloves (gardening or work gloves are ideal) please bring them along. Please wear sturdy closed-toe footwear and clothing suitable for the conditions on the day. Refreshments will be available for volunteers at the centre afterwards. Public toilets are located in the Harbour Car Park. All under 16s must be supervised by a parent or guardian for the duration of the event.
