We Care

Protecting the water we dive in.

Cleanups, conservation, and community across Pinellas County — the good work Misting Monsoon does below the waterline, in one place. See our latest local news coverage.

Why we give back

Misting Monsoon Diving makes its living below the surface — on the hulls, docks, and passes of Pinellas County. That’s also where a coastline’s trouble tends to settle, out of sight of a shoreline cleanup. So giving back here isn’t a campaign; it’s the same job, pointed at the water instead of a boat.

We show up for underwater cleanups, back the volunteers who do the shoreline half, and share what we find. This page is the home for all of it — and it grows every time we get back in the water.

Taking the Treasure Island cleanup below the waterline

Cleanup · Treasure Island, FL · July 5, 2026

On July 5, founder Jarrett Maryon joined the annual post-Fourth of July beach cleanup at Treasure Island and added the underwater component — the cans, plastic, and firework debris that reach the water and never make it into a trash bag. Tampa Bay 28 covered the day, with Maryon on camera on why the part you can’t see matters most.
