Presentation
Become an active participant in protecting our coastline: a worthwhile walk to preserve the beauty of our beaches on the Côte Bleue. Join us on the Mediterranean coast of Carro (Martigues) for this unique experience.
As part of the biodiversity exhibition, the Martigues Tourist Office invites you to a unique civic experience in partnership with the Planète Perles association. Combine the pleasure of a seaside hike with a concrete action for the environment.
Accompanied by passionate individuals, you will explore the coastline to identify and collect litter while discovering the richness of our natural heritage. This is the perfect opportunity to understand the impact of pollution on marine biodiversity and to actively contribute to the cleanliness of Arnettes Beach.
The Planète Perles association, chaired by Cécile Bernardon, is dedicated to raising environmental awareness and protecting marine environments. Through its initiatives, it shares essential knowledge about the fragility of local biodiversity while encouraging eco-responsible behavior in everyday life. For each participant in this hike, €2 is directly donated to the association to support its conservation efforts. A commitment to solidarity for a cleaner future for our coastlines.
