Earth Day is just around the corner, and this year, we're coming together to make a bigger splash than ever before!
Join the Clean Virginia Waterways team and community partners as we lead a community-wide cleanup effort at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM. Our mission this year is to take decisive action against plastic pollution and protect our environment for future generations. This is your chance to spring into action and help beautify our shared spaces while preventing harmful plastics from reaching our waterways and green spaces.
You can choose from multiple check-in locations around the Virginia Beach oceanfront and ViBe Creative District to make a direct impact where it matters most to you. You will double the value of your effort by collecting data about the quantity & types of litter you find by using the Clean Swell app during your cleanup!
