The Virgin Islands Marine Advisory Service (VIMAS) will begin its Coastweeks cleanup from Sept. 21 through November. The first cleanup is on John Brewers Bay from 9 a.m. to 12 noon on Sept. 21, 2019.
Our beaches are an important economic and recreational natural resource, yet, they are often littered with trash that can enter the ocean and harm marine life. Volunteer during Coastweeks to help keep our beaches clean and the health of our oceans thriving. Take your action one-step further and join the #cleanseas movement.
Pledge your actions to reduce your usage of single-use plastic products at https://www.cleanseas.org/pledge
