The Great Marine Debris Escape

Ocean Week Halifax

Digby, Nova Scotia

Join Us for Shoreline Cleanups on Digby Neck!

Help protect one of Nova Scotia’s most beautiful and ecologically important areas by participating in our shoreline cleanups on the Digby Neck and Bay of Fundy. Known for its whale grounds during the warmer months, this area collects thousands of pounds of debris each year, and we need your help to make a difference.

Inclusive and Family-Friendly:

  • Activities for all ages, from easy family-friendly cleanups to more challenging hiking locations.
  • Opportunities for waste diversion, debris repurposing, and administrative duties.

Why Participate? Marine debris on Digby Neck affects everyone. Our hands-on events get you out in the “thick of it,” helping you understand the extent of the problem and the impact of your efforts. By working together, we can clean up these beautiful coves and protect the marine life that calls this area home.

Experience the Impact: Participants are often surprised by how much debris accumulates. By joining us, you’ll not only help clean up but also gain a deeper appreciation for the natural beauty of Digby Neck and the importance of protecting it.

Let’s unite to keep our oceans clean and safeguard the breathtaking beauty of Digby Neck. Every bit counts, and together, we can make a significant difference.

See you at the cleanup!
