With everyone getting out on the water to enjoy the nice weather, you can help make a real difference for Florida’s waterways and beyond.
Space Coast Water Sweep started here on the Space Coast because of the growing need to remove abandoned crab traps and other marine debris. These traps can become silent killers, harming far more than just crabs. They can trap fish, turtles, birds, and other wildlife while adding pollution to our waters.
There are still thousands of these traps out there, and you can help.
Download the Space Coast Water Sweep app and report what you see. You don’t need to touch anything, remove anything, or have special equipment. Just spot it, take a photo, and report it through the app.
Please download the app today and register if you can. Even if you don’t register, having the app ready means you can help the next time you’re out on the water.
Together, we can reduce bycatch, remove pollution, and help protect our waterways.
