Marine debris on our beaches is a major socio-economic and environmental concern, with significant monitoring projects currently underway worldwide to assess its composition, quantity, and distribution. Remote beaches are often overlooked in favour of urbanised, frequently visited beaches, primarily due to accessibility challenges. This creates a gap in our understanding of pollution levels, as well as in monitoring and management efforts along the coastline. Our study involves the monitoring of nine remote beaches along a 2,000 km stretch of the New South Wales coastline over a five-year period. We investigated marine debris larger than 0.5 cm, analysing litter density and distribution patterns across all study sites. Additionally, we examined the spatial distribution of marine litter across different geomorphological zones of the beach, including the dune, berm, and swash zone. Results provide a baseline assessment of litter density on remote beaches in NSW and offer insights into the role of beach morphology in debris distribution. These remote beaches, with limited access and minimal in-situ deposition, indicate marine debris composition and abundance in NSW coastal waters. Despite ongoing global efforts, significant challenges remain in mitigating impacts and our findings suggest strategies should be tailored to different beach environments to maximise effectiveness.
