Juno Beach on Florida’s Treasure Coast offers more than pristine shorelines and summer sun — it’s a frontline in the vital effort to combat marine debris.

This experience is straightforward yet impactful: over 1 to 2 hours, participants work to rid the beach of plastic, fishing line, and other debris threatening sea turtles and shorebirds. LMC provides all necessary gear, including gloves and mesh bags, plus optional trash grabbers. Groups of up to 50 can easily book a session tailored for schools, companies, or friends who want to do something tangible for the environment.
