Registration is full but JOIN the  waitlist if you are interested.

Departure Location: HALIFAX:

Meet at Ambassatours (formerly Murphy’s on the Water), Cable Wharf, 1751 Lower Water St on the Halifax Waterfront by 9:15 am for the 9:30 departure. Space is limited so everyone MUST pre-register to guarantee your spot.

Dress for the weather and island environment. Wear sturdy sneakers or hiking books. Bring sunscreen, sunhats, insect repellent, work gloves, drinking water, a lunch and ENTHUSIASM. We will supply the garbage bags and FREE transportation to the island for volunteers willing to clean up the beaches. Service dogs only please. Sorry no bicycles on this trip. Note: the cleanup is not suitable for very young children (under 5 years) as there could be hazards lying on the beaches.

Over the past 34 years, volunteers have collected more than 16,750 bags of garbage and recyclables from the beaches of McNabs and Lawlor Islands Provincial Park.
