Coastal Cleanups – Monthly
Our coastline is one of our most precious resources and all of us must chip in to keep it pristine. SoundWaters is leading the charge, but needs everyone’s help. We host seasonal clean-up days when we will provide you with gloves and bags to walk the public shoreline and pick up human debris. We weigh and catalog everything collected before disposing of it in the appropriate manner. Coastal cleanups are ideal for friends, families and teams.
SoundWaters Tall Ships Ball – May 2, 2025
The Tall Ships Ball is back and this year, it’s all about your senior prom! Join SoundWaters on May 2. Enjoy incredible food and drinks, great music, and dancing. Add exciting auctions full of unique items and experiences that money can’t buy and we’ll have the party of the decade. All this in support of Long Island Sound education for students.
What does the Tall Ships Ball look like? Check out all the photos from 2024.
SoundWaters Super Splash – February 9, 2025
Over 120 fun-loving and brave souls kicked off their Super Bowl Sunday at Cove Island in Stamford by by running and jumping into a chilly and “refreshing” Long Island Sound. When they emerged (quickly), they wrapped themselves in towels and warmed up with donuts and hot chocolate on the beach, courtesy of ShopRite and the Cingari Family.
All in support of climate science education.

SoundWaters Flotilla – July 12, 2025
Talk about a movement to protect Long Island Sound! This event actually moves – from Cove Island Park on Stamford’s east side to Boccuzzi Park on the west side – hundreds of people of all ages and skill levels paddling kayaks and paddle boards in a big, colorful flotilla of small boats, finishing with a great party celebrating a fun day and a job well done. Everyone paddling is telling their friends and family and raising money to help SoundWaters teach more underserved kids about Long Island Sound.
SoundWaters HarborFest
Let’s go to the harbor! HarborFest is bringing Stamford to the harbor for the city’s biggest waterfront celebration in its history. Thousands of visitors of all ages will flock to the Harbor to enjoy, historic tours of Stamford Harbor, mini golf, kids boat building, marine animals and of course, the Aquarion Cardboard Kayak Race for the Mayor’s Trophy! HarborFest is Stamford’s celebration of the Harbor and all its sea shore amenities. Don’t miss it. NOTE: Due to renovations at Boccuzzi Park, there will be no HarborFest in 2025. We look forward to bringing HarborFest back in 2026. Stay tuned for updates.
