Celebrate Coastal clean up day by kayaking through mangrove tress and clean up the surrounding trash
About the Activity
The Intenrational Coastal Clean up day (ICC) occurs every third saturday of September each year. ICC aims to engages people to remove trash from the world’s beaches and waterways. Thanks to volunteers around the world, the ICC has become a beacon of hope, leading and inspiring action in support of our ocean. Since its beginning, more than 17 million volunteers have collected more than 348 million pounds of trash. For more than 35 years, the ICC has galvanized communities worldwide to collect trash that pollutes our waterways, making our coasts cleaner and our ocean healthier.

Ammazing experiance,
It was fun, exciting, and engaging. It feels so great to be part of the community to help in healing the ocean. It was also a perfect avenue to learn more about the importance of the mangroves and understand their valuable contribution to the ecosystem and to our planet Earth. I want to thank the WWF organizers and Seddiqi Holding for letting us experience this amazing activity.
