Did you know?!
The Busselton Jetty Environment Foundation facilitates a number of coastal (and underwater!) cleanups each year in the South West. Over 2024-2025, our volunteer team removed approximately 70kgs of marine debris from the coastline and underneath the Jetty, comprising of around 4109 pieces of litter!!
Data from each cleanup is logged with the Australian Marine Debris Initiative Datababse, helping to inform management decisions to prevent marine pollution.
