Programs

From leading monthly beach cleanups to monitoring shoreline health and reducing plastic pollution, Surfrider Bogue Banks programs empower the community to protect and restore our coastal ecosystems.

Beach Cleanups

The Surfrider Foundation’s monthly Beach Cleanups bring our community together to take action against ocean litter and plastic pollution. Join us on the 2nd Saturday of every month — together we can restore our coastlines, one beach at a time.

Beach Guardians Program

The Surfrider Foundation’s Beach Guardians program empowers volunteers to protect local shorelines through hands-on stewardship and data collection. One cleanup, one shoreline at a time, it builds community, raises awareness, and creates lasting impact to reduce pollution and strengthen coastal resilience.
