Sail Lanka Charter and Partner Companies Conduct a Beach Clean-Up on World Ocean Day On World Ocean Day, June 8th, Sail Lanka Charter joined forces with The Serendipity Collection and The Serendipity Experiences for an impactful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. The collaborative effort tackled a critical issue: cleaning up Crow Island Beach in Colombo 15, an area heavily affected by pollution.

This collaborative effort aimed to raise awareness about coastal pollution, marine life, and the importance of preserving this area for the benefit of local livelihoods and biodiversity. Staff from all three organizations came together to tackle this pressing issue, working to restore the beach’s natural beauty and promote environmental stewardship within the community.

Sharing his thoughts on the initiative, Mario Stubbs, the Managing Director of Sail Lanka Charter and the CEO & Founder of The Serendipity Collection and The Serendipity Experiences stated "Taking part in the World Ocean Day clean-up at Crow Island Beach was truly inspiring. Through our collaboration across Sail Lanka Charter, The Serendipity Collection, and The Serendipity Experiences, we highlighted the essential need to protect our coastlines. This effort reinforced our dedication to marine conservation and sustainable practices.”

During the clean-up, volunteers removed waste from the beach and nearby waterways, carefully sorting and responsibly disposing of the collected debris. This initiative not only demonstrated the organizations' commitment to environmental best practices but also educated the community about the critical importance of protecting marine environments. The volunteers left with a deep sense of accomplishment and a greater understanding of the impact of pollution, which reinforced their commitment to sustainable practices and inspired them to continue advocating for environmental conservation.
