While cleaning our beaches, CoastWalk also serves as an ecological snapshot documenting annual changes in Kachemak Bay. This is our 40th year doing this work! Join us on Saturday, September 30th as we explore both facets of CoastWalk with a clean-up and guided tidepooling!
This event starts and ends at the Water Trail Pavilion on the Homer Spit. From 9:00-10:30am we'll have a guided tidepooling session with our CACS Naturalists, then from 10:30am-12:00pm we'll be working to clean up marine debris and keep that section of beach beautiful!
To register, please contact Henry at 907-235-6741 or henry@akcoastalstudies.org. Or visit our Headquarters at 708 Smokey Bay Way in Homer! We'll see you out there!

Join us for a short hike to the beach at the mouth of Diamond Creek where we'll clean up marine debris and collect environmental data! Cleaning marine debris from the beach and collecting data can help us see how trash moves through Kachemak Bay, and how beach access affects what we find.
We'll meet at the Diamond Creek trailhead at 10:00am on Saturday, October 7th. If you need a ride over, let us know! We have transportation available from our Headquarters at 708 Smokey Bay Way. Make sure to bring water, warm clothes, rain gear, and your best mud boots.
For more information or to sign-up in advance, contact Henry at 907-235-6741 or henry@akcoastalstudies.org. Or visit our Headquarters! We'll see you out there!
