Preserving Our Island

At Alliance for a Living Ocean, we believe that caring for our local environment starts with community action. Our preservation efforts focus on maintaining the natural beauty and ecological health of Long Beach Island through organized cleanups and habitat restoration initiatives.

Join Our Beach Clean-Ups: Protect Our Shores, One Beach at a Time

At Alliance for a Living Ocean, we believe in the power of community to protect the planet. Our beach clean-up events bring together passionate volunteers dedicated to preserving the beauty and health of our coastlines. Every piece of trash collected is a step toward a cleaner, safer ocean for wildlife and future generations. Whether you're an ocean lover, environmental advocate, or simply looking to make a difference, we welcome you to roll up your sleeves and join us in this crucial mission.

Our beach cleanups remove thousands of pieces of litter each year from LBI’s shoreline, preventing plastic and debris from polluting the ocean and harming wildlife. These events are open to all ages and offer an easy, hands-on way to make a direct impact. Whether you're a local resident or a visitor, you’re invited to join us and help keep our beaches pristine.

Help Us Rebuild Coastal Habitats: Dune Grass Planting for a Healthier Shoreline

Coastal dunes are vital to the health of our beaches and the protection of coastal ecosystems. At Alliance for a Living Ocean our dune grass planting events focus on restoring these essential habitats, preventing erosion, and creating a safe environment for wildlife to thrive. By planting native grasses, we're not only stabilizing the dunes but also contributing to the long-term resilience of our shoreline. Join us in this hands-on, rewarding effort to restore the natural beauty and strength of our coasts. Every plant we sow today helps protect our shores for future generations.
