Lobster Beach and Half Tide Rocks area cleaned up
The Clean4Shore group has delivered 620kg of rubbish to Woy Woy tip from a clean-up the Lobster Beach and the Half Tide Rocks foreshores.
A heavy mattress on Lobster Beach was a "problem item", according to coordinator Mr Graham Johnston.
It required "a massive amount of makeshift skill and luck" to get on board the group's barge, he said.
"Our day started with rock hopping from Half Tide Rocks to Lobster Beach, removing car tyres, treated pine, pallets and plenty of polystyrene pieces.
"Lobster Beach had few small items thanks to local intervention with more treated pine removed to the barge.
"This load was transported back to Empire Bay where locals at Merritts Wharf pointed out a sunken fibreglass pontoon which needed plenty of ingenuity to remove from the jetty area.
"The pontoon was difficult to tow as it was submerged."
