Native Garden Workday & Beach Cleanup

Cabrillo Marine Aquarium invites the public to participate in their monthly Beach Clean-Up and Native Garden Workday. Volunteers learn about shoreline habitats and the coastal sage scrub native plant community, while discovering the benefits of protecting these environments. The collective effort of volunteers who spend two hours removing beach debris and helping to maintain the native garden can make a real difference along our heavily impacted shoreline. They welcome volunteers of all ages and abilities; parking tickets will be validated.

Following a morning of conservation efforts, visitors can extend their experience by visiting the aquarium’s Exploration Center, Aquatic Nursery, Virginia Reid Moore Marine Research Library and the Susanne Lawrenz-Miller Exhibit Hall. The Aquarium displays local marine life of Southern California and will be open to the public from 10 AM to 5 PM.

Plan to stop by CMA’s volunteer-run gift shop for a wide selection of gifts and books.
