Join Water Warrior Alliance and community partners at SkyBeach Resort for the St. Petersburg Ocean Sweep, a large-scale cleanup event dedicated to protecting local waterways. Volunteers, divers, boaters, and environmental groups will work together to remove marine debris while enjoying a day filled with education, competition, and celebration.
The event kicks off at first light, followed by an eco-fair, sponsor exhibits, and interactive activities at 12:00 PM. Volunteers will compete in trash weigh-ins from 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM, with prizes awarded for categories like total weight, most unique item, and specialty challenges. A free lunch for participants runs from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM, leading up to the awards ceremony at 3:30 PM and the raffle drawing at 4:30 PM. The day wraps up with live music starting at 5:30 PM.
Cleanup teams will have designated drop-off locations for collected trash, and winners will receive upcycled plastic bottle medallions from Water Warrior Alliance. Proceeds from the raffle will benefit Camp Coral SCUBA Camp Scholarships.
Proudly sponsored by the City of St. Petersburg, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, 3 Daughters Brewing, Gulfport Dive Center, St. Pete Hauling, GreenPolly, and more. Make an impact, connect with the community, and compete for prizes. Sign up today and join the fight against pollution!
