Run for a Great Cause and Protect Our Sound

Every June, our community comes together at Dane Street Beach in Beverly for Salem Sound Coastwatch’s annual Run for the Beach 5K.

This fun, family friendly event supports our mission to protect and improve the environmental health of Salem Sound and its watershed.

Bring your friends and family and make a morning of it. Enjoy:

• A photo booth to capture the day

• A life size inflatable humpback whale, Salt the Whale

• An interactive marine touch tank

• Beachside activities and community fun

Cheer on the runners, enjoy the ocean views, and celebrate our shared commitment to a healthy coastline.
