Marine Plastic
Plastic is the most common type of marine litter worldwide, and according to the United Nations comprises up to 90% of floating marine debris. Plastic does not biodegrade, rather it breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, often being mistaken for food by marine animals. The United Nations estimates that 100,000 marine mammals and one million sea birds die every year from ingestion of or entanglement in plastics.
In Summary
The Bondi Bag is more than just a stylish garment bag—it’s a purposeful choice for eco-conscious travelers. Built of rugged, 210-denier nylon and anchored by the powerful reminder to “Reduce Plastic Save A Beach,” it replaces single-use plastic while educating users about the devastating impact of plastic pollution. Each purchase—$15 per bag, available in black or royal blue—channels $1–$2 directly to the Surfrider Foundation’s impactful programs, including the Rise Above Plastics campaign, ensuring your investment goes toward cleaner beaches and healthier oceans.
More than a product, the Bondi Bag is a statement: every time you use it, you’re joining a collective effort to curb plastic waste and protect marine environments. Plus, with its reusable postcard and co-branded hangtag, it prompts ongoing conversation about conservation and sustainable living.
