Harbor Cleanup Event
Santa Barbara Harbor
May 4th , from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm
Santa Barbara Harbor’s Operation Clean Sweep, a seafloor debris cleanup program, will hold its 15th annual event on Saturday, May 4th. A team of volunteer divers, supported by volunteer dock workers, will remove junk from beneath the Marina. Divers will locate the junk and dock volunteers will cart it off for disposal.
During past events, volunteers removed over twenty tons of debris from Santa Barbara Harbor, including bicycles, plastic barrels, boat propellers, outboard engines, phones, and marine batteries.
The event begins at 8:00 a.m., with a briefing on the Travel Lift Pier beneath the Harbormaster’s Office, complete with free coffee and donuts. It concludes with a hearty lunch at 11:30 a.m.
