LONG BRANCH, N.J. - s4story -- As the Jersey Shore prepares for its busiest season, Clean Ocean Action is launching the second annual Savor the Shore to Save the Shore campaign, inviting restaurants, bars, and coastal businesses to turn everyday dining into meaningful environmental impact.

Running from Memorial Day through Labor Day, the campaign brings together the hospitality community around a shared goal: protecting the ocean that fuels the region's tourism, economy, and way of life. By participating, businesses align with a growing movement that connects customer experience with sustainability and community responsibility.

Now in its second year, Savor the Shore builds on strong early momentum, offering a simple and flexible way for businesses to get involved while gaining visibility throughout the summer season. Participating establishments join at one of three levels, Shore Ally, Wave Maker, or Ocean Champion, and receive a turnkey promotional platform that includes ready and easy-to-use campaign materials, digital assets, and recognition across Clean Ocean Action channels.
