SURFRIDER FOUNDATION'S BEACH CLEANUP PROGRAM
Through our beach cleanup program, we help volunteers understand the impacts of our throwaway society and a convenience culture built on single-use plastics. An estimated 11 million metric tons of plastic enter the ocean each year, the equivalent of one garbage truck load per minute. While we cannot clean ourselves out of the plastic pollution pandemic, our beach cleanups serve to raise awareness and inspire individuals to adopt upstream solutions to stop plastic waste at the source, primarily through everyday consumer choices and legislative advocacy.

A few other parking options exist for access to the Santa Monica Pier and nearby Santa Monica Beach:
The Pier Deck Parking Lot: limited parking is available seasonally during select days and times.
Civic Center Garage: This Santa Monica parking garage is just off the 10 West freeway exit, on 4th and Olympic, across from City Hall.
Santa Monica has on-street parking meters throughout the city, all of which accept payment via coins or credit cards.
The Metro E Line: if you want a convenient way to access the Pier, try parking at one of the Metro parking garages at an Expo stop in Santa Monica, and hopping on the train. Parking starts at $3, and since there are no overnight penalties, they are a great place to find overnight parking in Santa Monica.
