Join The Blue Urban Project, The Florida Aquarium, Lett’s Dive, and MAR for an underwater cleanup at the Bay Fishing Pier at Fort De Soto! The Blue Urban Project’s diver-led cleanups remove marine debris from docks and surrounding water, protecting seagrass, wildlife, and water quality in Tampa Bay.

In addition to removing debris, we’ll be conducting light data collection, recording the type, quantity, and location of items recovered, to better understand where pollution is coming from and to strengthen future prevention efforts. This information helps us track trends over time, share results with partners, and advocate for solutions that reduce debris at the source.
