With joint efforts, we usually manage to find record amounts of litter, both from the seabed and the shoreline. Here, you can read about all the companies and interest organizations that have chosen to participate or support this day in 2025.
Västkuststiftelsen coordinates beach clean-ups along the entire west coast, from Kungsbacka in the south to Strömstad in the north. The foundation's tool, Strandstädarkartan, is available to assist everyone. Västkuststiftelsen will participate in Plogging Day on May 17th.
Plogga is a growing organization where you pick up litter while jogging. With the help of ambassadors, Plogga has developed into a fun and educational platform that engages many people in a global litter-picking wave. Kajkanten is a Plogga-certified company.
Kajkanten's employees are really passionate about giving their guests a great experience. Started with a guided tour with Håkan who told us about Vrångö and its history. The pilots delivered wonderful seafood to the party on the relaxation raft. A unique experience!
Första gången vi besökte Vrångö blev vi så förälskade att vi bestämde oss för att ta med närmsta släkt och vänner och gifta oss där. Vilket vi gjorde nu i augusti. The whole gang lived in Kajkanten's lake cabins, which are very cozy and have exactly what you need for a weekend in the archipelago. Håkan and other staff at Kajkanten are fantastic - nice, hospitable and helpful! They also helped us rent a venue where everyone could gather for celebrations.

An absolutely fantastic cozy and nice accommodation in Gothenburg's southern archipelago. We are very satisfied and would love to come back. All comfort was in the small boathouse. Vrångö is so nice. Nice visit to Hamnkrogen Lotsen with super tasty seafood. Caring and friendly staff.
