Platforms Beach Cleanup

Saturday, March 25, 2 – 4pm

On Saturday, March 25 from 2:00 to 4:00pm, the Mount Madonna School (MMS) fifth grade class is organizing a community beach cleanup of Platforms Beach in Aptos. Volunteers of all ages are invited to join in the effort; the students will supply trash bags and buckets; each volunteer should bring their own gloves.

“As part of our environmental project to help pelicans, we are planning this community beach cleanup,” shared a student. “We will also be hosting a sustainable bake sale to raise funds for our adopted pelican. We would be ecstatic if you came and supported our efforts and the ocean!”

Platforms Beach is located between Rio del Mar Beach and Hidden Beach, and is accessed via a drive down Beach Drive from the Rio del Mar Beach Round-a-bout.

There’s a state beach parking lot that requires that you either pay $10 to park or have a state park parking pass.  There are some free parking spots around there, but they are limited and usually fill up before the paid spots do.

Platforms Beach is known for its long, wide and sandy beach, with gentle waves and a long shelf out into the water before there is any drop-off – it’s like you are walking on a platform out into the water. It’s a very popular place for families.  There is a public restroom and a water fountain, but that’s it for the amenities.
