Almost 500kg of litter was removed by volunteers from Cavan for the Big Beach Clean.
Nationwide, 7,700 volunteers joined forces all across Ireland to take part in a worldwide citizen science project.
Clean-ups happened in various locations across Cavan including Blacklion, Glangevlin and Maudabawn.
Supported by Cully and Sully, the Big Beach Clean is part of the International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) organised by the Ocean Conservancy.
This year's Big Beach Clean was also part of Clean Coasts 20th anniversary celebrations, and the charity programme was delighted to see volunteers from all walks of life, including community groups, Tidy Towns associations, students, families, local businesses, and environmental enthusiasts, unite with a shared commitment to tackle marine litter.
