The Litter4Tokens Environmental Campaign is making waves at Willard Beach with over 20 trained collectors tracking recycling and nurdle removal in real time. Visitors can join the Mermaid Tear Catcher challenge and help keep our oceans clean. After the last heat today, don’t miss the Pro’s vs Musos clash, where world #1 Jordy Smith (Durban) will be hitting the water for a fun showdown of surf and sound today after the last heat of the day.
