The beach clean, organised by Zoomarine and supported by Silves, Lagoa and Albufeira municipalities, took place on the beaches of Salgados, Galé, Armação de Pêra. Praia Grande, Srª da Rocha and Praia Nova.

Glass, paper, plastic, fishing nets, and general waste were removed from the beaches and the seabed as part of the “Together We Protect” initiative from Zoomarine.

The next operation from Zoomarine will be the Green Mountain Operation 2019, taking place on 10 and 11 November across eight municipalities. This initiative aims to plant some 42,000 trees across the Algarve.
