Cleaning Up Yas Marina Beach: A Day of Impact, Sustainability, and Community Spirit

On a sunny, vibrant morning at Yas Marina, Yas Island, community members, environmental enthusiasts, and local partners came together with one shared mission: to protect and preserve one of Abu Dhabi's most iconic beaches. The beach cleanup event, held in proud partnership with Elite Horizon, was more than just a cleanup it was a celebration of sustainability, wellness, and collective impact.

The Power of Partnership, Elite Horizon Leads the Way

This initiative was proudly supported by Elite Horizon, a leader in community engagement and sustainable development. Their commitment to corporate social responsibility set the tone for a powerful, high-energy day focused on environmental preservation and education.

Elite Horizon brought together volunteers from various backgrounds—including local students, corporate teams, and environmental advocates—to participate in a well-organized, impactful beach cleanup that left Yas Marina visibly cleaner and more protected.

Staying Cool in the Summer Heat

Beach cleanups can be demanding, especially under the UAE’s intense summer sun. To ensure every volunteer stayed safe, hydrated, and refreshed, the event was equipped with premium summer gear

Igloo Coolers: Ice Cold Refreshment All Day

Strategically placed Igloo Drinking water Coolers 10 Gallon were stocked with chilled water and drinks to keep participants cool throughout the day. Their rugged design and Ultratherm® insulation ensured that drinks stayed icy even during the midday heat.

Why Igloo?

• Holds ice up to 5 days
• Easy to transport
• Ideal for large groups and long hours outdoors
• High visibility red and yellow safety colours
• The PEHD mask will not be kneaded, peeled, curled, or rusted.
• Ultratherm insulation for maximum cold retention

💧 Moya Bottles: Sustainable Hydration on the Move

Every participant received a reusable Moya Bottle, reducing single use plastic and keeping everyone hydrated. With sleek designs and vacuum-insulated stainless steel, Moya Bottles were a stylish and responsible solution to summer hydration.

Klean Freak Body Wipes: On the Go Freshness

Sweat, sand, and sunscreen are all part of the cleanup experience. That’s where Klean Freak body wipes came in. These biodegradable, antibacterial wipes helped everyone feel refreshed after hard work, without the need for water or a rinse.

Klean Freak Highlights:

• Alcohol free and gentle on skin
• Individually wrapped and easy to carry
• Offered in a variety of scents (or unscented options for sensitive users)

Environmental Impact & Community Engagement

Over the course of the day:

• Hundreds of kilograms of marine debris and plastic waste were collected.
• Participants learned about waste separation, marine conservation, and sustainable habits through educational pop-ups and live demos.
• Dozens of social media shares helped amplify the message far beyond the beach.

The Future of Sustainable Beach Events

This beach cleanup at Yas Marina is just the beginning. By combining environmental responsibility with well planned logistics and thoughtful gear support, we’ve shown that sustainable events can be both practical and deeply impactful.

Through ongoing collaboration with Elite Horizon, and with continued support from brands like Igloo, Moya, and Klean Freak, we aim to scale up these efforts across the UAE.
