Coastal Cleanups
River CleanupsRestore brings together community activities where travellers and locals look after the coast together. Instead of buying a trip, you sign up to help, whether that means clearing trash from a shoreline in Coron or paddling the Abatan River in Bohol to remove plastic from its channels.
Restore activities are run by local hosts, often several together, such as Kayak Asia and Yoga sa Isla. Many are free or ask only a small contribution towards materials and equipment, and places can be limited, so check each listing for dates, meeting place and how to sign up.
A Restore activity is a community conservation event such as a coastal cleanup, river cleanup or mangrove planting day. You join local hosts and other volunteers for a few hours of practical work, and each listing explains where to meet and what to bring.
Some Restore activities are run by a single host, while others are organised by several groups together. Each listing shows every host involved, so you can see who is behind the activity and visit their profiles to learn more about their work.
Several Restore activities are free to join, while others ask for a participation fee that covers snacks, materials and equipment upkeep. Group sizes are often limited, so sign up early and follow the signup link on the listing to reserve your place.
Participants usually need to make their own way to a set meeting place, such as a mangrove planting area or a kayak base. Wear clothes and footwear you do not mind getting dirty, bring water and sun protection, and read the listing for host instructions.
It depends on the activity. Some, such as the monthly Coron coastal cleanup, are free to join with limited places. Others, such as River Reboot in Bohol, ask for a participation fee that supports materials, snacks and equipment. Each listing shows its fees.
Open the activity page and use the signup button. It takes you to the signup form or chat set up by the hosts. Restore activities are not paid through Tidetribe checkout, so follow the host instructions on the listing.
No. Restore activities are open to everyone, and the hosts guide you on the day. Some, such as river cleanups, use kayaks and are supported by a kayaking team, so check the listing for what is provided and what to bring.
Local hosts run them, sometimes together. The Coron coastal cleanup is run by Kayak Asia and Yoga sa Isla, while River Reboot in Bohol is run by Kayak Asia. Each listing shows the hosts and links to their profiles.
