Restoring and protecting Charleston's waterways so you can fish and swim without pollution. #standup #showup #speakup
About us
Charleston Waterkeeper was founded in 2009 to protect and restore Charleston’s waterways for our community and for future generations. We do that through an effective mix of boots-on-the-water stewardship and data-driven advocacy designed to protect the public’s right to clean water for fishing and swimming. Simply put, we are watchdogs, stewards, and defenders for clean water. We use science, data, and evidence to stand guard and stop pollution. We teach stewardship and conservation through action to clean up and restore local waterways. And, we hold polluters accountable to make sure all of Charleston’s waterways are fishable and swimmable.

Take a few tips from the next generation and roast like a pro! Tip 1: Only shells in the oyster barrel, no trash. Please don't make someone else clean up your mess. Tip 2: Recycle your shells with South Carolina Department of Natural Resources SCORE.
