World Oceans Day Activities

World Oceans Day Activities

The 8th of June marks World Oceans Day. To highlight the importance of this day we have put together this list of world oceans day activities. These activities are great for all ages and help to remind us of the importance of protecting our oceans. This is a great day to get together with your family, friends, and community to start creating a better future!

Scientists estimate that if we don’t change our ways, the ocean will have more plastic by weight than fish by 2050. This is shocking and a massive problem for both our marine life and local economies. If you would like to find out more about World Oceans Day then be sure to visit the World Oceans Day website. This website has lots of information and resources as well as events in your local area.

1. Collect Rubbish

Collecting rubbish from your local park or beach is a great way to help our oceans. You can find or create a group event here. Or gather up your family and friends, grab and bag or bucket and get collecting.

Our girls love collecting rubbish. The top photo was taken on our Valentine’s Day dinner at the beach where the girls decided that a trash collecting mission was needed. The other photo was taken at a community organized rubbish collecting event. It doesn’t matter if you collect with a friend, family or alone, every piece of trash removed is a step in the right direction.
