Action & Awareness
2026 Run for the Beach

Join Salem Sound Coastwatch in their effort for a healthier sea and shore on Sunday, June 14, 2026, for their annual Run for the Beach fundraiser!
Every summer, our community comes together at Dane Street Beach in Beverly for a fun, family friendly 5K that supports the work of Salem Sound Coastwatch. Bring your friends, bring your kids, and make a morning of it. Enjoy:
• A photo booth to capture the day
• A life size inflatable whale
• An interactive touch tank
Cheer on the runners, soak up the beach vibes, and celebrate our shared commitment to a healthy Salem Sound.
Race takes place rain or shine. We cannot wait to see you there!
Running not your thing? They’re looking for volunteers, too!
• Help with registering runners.
• Help with directing traffic during the event.
• Encourage participants along the 5k route.
