Baynanza

Baynanza is a celebration of Biscayne Bay and its significance as one of our most important ecological systems in South Florida. While Baynanza includes more than 25 great events spanning over five weeks throughout March and April, the Biscayne Bay Cleanup Day event has become nearly synonymous with this celebration.

Remember to wear closed-toe shoes (tennis-type shoes) and bring gloves, water, trash bags and snacks for you and any volunteers in your party.

We suggest you bring the following items with you when you participate in a clean up:
- Extra water
- Sunscreen
- Mosquito repellent
- Hat or visor
- Sunglasses

The early 1980s marked the beginning of a monumental effort by Miami-Dade County to save Biscayne Bay and that effort continues in 2020. The Bay continues to suffer from pollution and the health of the marine environment is in a steep decline. Baynanza was created as part of a larger effort to save the Bay, which is our mission.

The environmental concerns that affect Biscayne Bay have reached dangerous levels. Baynanza continues to be an important community-wide effort to save the Bay.
As part of the fun and festivities, Miami-Dade County and Vizcaya Museum and Gardens are offering a number of contests for students as well as a contest open to all.
- Bookmark design contest for Miami-Dade County elementary school students
- Poster design contest for Miami-Dade County middle school students
- T-shirt design contest for Miami-Dade County high school students
- Photography contest for Miami-Dade County residents of all ages; students and non-students
All winners will be announced at the Baynanza Kickoff Event, which will be held at Vizcaya on March 11, 2020. For more information, visit the Vizcaya website.
