Plastic Pollution & Habitat Cleanups

Conservation teams in Guanahacabibes run environmental dive cleanups and coastal beach debris removal projects that both eliminate harmful waste and raise public awareness about plastic pollution’s impacts on ocean ecosystems. These programs include classroom sessions on marine debris followed by hands-on removal alongside scientists and community members. As a visitor you’ll have the chance to meet with locals and bond together while cleaning up trash that migrates to the shores via natural currents.
