A Beacon
for the Bay

Lighting the Way

Our “Bring Back the Beach” Annual Awards Gala was a wonderful night of giving—and we met our fundraising goals! A big thanks goes out to all honorees, guests and volunteers. View a full recap, Blue Carpet pics and more photos.

The Beach Belongs to All of Us!

Come celebrate diversity and inclusion June 2 at our 6th annual Nick Gabaldon Day, honoring the legacy of L.A.’s first surfer of color. Everyone welcome for free surf lessons, memorial paddle-out and historical tour.

Our Impact

Beach cleanups are just the beginning. Heal the Bay staff work to mobilize L.A.’s many diverse communities to protect our coastline, revitalize our urban waterways, and speak out for smart water policy.
