Make a big splash for L.A.’s Waterways! Become a Heal the Bay Beach Captain!

Our monthly Nothin’ But Sand Cleanups are public events bring people from all over the county together to remove hundreds of pounds of trash from the Los Angeles Beaches we know and love, but we couldn’t run these awesome cleanups without the help of our amazing Beach Captains & Heal the Bay Speakers!

Our Beach Captains ensure that these monthly cleanups run smoothly and lead our volunteers in each step of the event, from registration, to filling out community service forms, handing out supplies, and educating the public on the impact each beach cleanup makes. Hundreds of pounds of trash are removed from the beaches of Los Angeles at each Nothin’ But Sand Cleanup, helping to promote safe, clean coastlines for wildlife and people alike. We could not achieve this without volunteer leaders like you.
