Join us for San Diego Coastkeeper’s annual fundraising gala, the Seaside Soirée!

The event brings together environmental advocates, community leaders, decision-makers, supporters, key stakeholders, and partners to reflect on the past year’s successes in advancing the protection and restoration of clean, abundant water across San Diego County. It is the one time of the year our friends, members, and supporters come together and dive deep into San Diego Coastkeeper’s programs and projects and mingle with the individuals that are making a difference for the health of our inland and coastal waterways. 

The evening event will feature a gourmet dinner, hosted bar, live entertainment, silent auction, valet parking, special guest speakers, and the opportunity to network with fellow ocean enthusiasts, all overlooking the stunning San Diego Bay at sunset. We look forward to seeing you there!
