In celebration of our ongoing work to protect and preserve shoreline access, the 5th Annual Paddle for Access event will take place on August 20th at the Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard!
Since 2006, Clean Ocean Access has inspired and educated the community to take action through environmentally responsible behaviors, working to eliminate marine debris, improve water quality, and preserve and protect public shoreline access. Through our Access Program, we monitor 50 designated rights-of-way to the shore across Aquidneck Island.
The 5th annual Paddle for Access will be a 3- or 6-mile paddle around Goat Island in Newport, RI to help us achieve our goal to preserve and protect public shoreline access. Stay tuned for opportunities to volunteer and join us on the water.
