About This Game

A full hold, a clean stretch of water, and enough coins for the upgrade you've had your eye on.

Settle into a cozy ocean-cleaning game where every trip around a sunny island bay brings another satisfying job. Collect floating litter, skim oil from the surface, and power-wash colorful coral reefs. Return to the docks, turn your haul into better equipment, and head out again in a boat that feels a little more your own.

A little cleaner with every trip


Steer between palm-lined islands and scoop up litter as you sail. Sweep through oil spills to leave clear lanes behind you, watch cargo pile up on your deck, and bring a full hold back to shore. Docking unloads your haul automatically, leaving you free to decide what to improve next.

There is pleasure in the small jobs: collecting a drifting cluster in one neat pass, clearing the last streak of oil, or arriving at the dock with every bit of cargo space filled. Cruise gently along the coast, or find a faster route and make each trip count.

Bring the color back to the reef


Head beneath the surface for hands-on coral power washing. Guide your spray across sediment-covered coral and watch its original colors emerge exactly where you clean.

Swaying seaweed, anemones, rocky shelves, and passing fish surround these underwater gardens. Work through broad patches, chase down the final dirty spots, and upgrade your washer for a wider, stronger spray. Your partial progress is saved, so you can leave a reef and return to finish it later.

Turn your boat into a cleanup machine


Every haul helps fund the next improvement. Invest in a stronger engine, a larger hold, a wider collector, better handling, and more capable oil-recovery equipment. Working machinery and visible fittings give your boat a growing collection of useful hardware.

Choose a fresh paint scheme, plan your next purchase, and build around the way you like to sail. Carry more between visits, collect more in a single pass, or put your earnings into conveniences that make the daily routine easier.

As your operation grows, you do not have to handle every job alone. Hire cleanup crews to collect litter, unlock a cargo tender to carry your hauls ashore, or release cleaner fish that gradually help restore the reefs.

Get to know the bay


Visit four island settlements, browse their workshops and services, and stop by the Aquarium to meet the bay's inhabitants. As the days pass, the sailing area expands, new wildlife arrives, and more activities become available, including towing oversized shipping containers back to shore.

Feed seals, turtles, otters, reef fish, and other marine life. Watch their meals up close, earn pearls for caring for them, and make wildlife visits part of your daily rounds.

Complete the day's work, return to the lighthouse, and welcome the next tide.

Your bay, your pace


There are no fuel bills, damage meters, or countdowns pushing you along. Take your time with a reef, enjoy a quiet trip between islands, or chase the satisfaction of a more efficient cleanup route.

Work toward the cove's closing celebration, then keep sailing beyond it. There is always another tide to enjoy.

A little less litter. A little more color. One more trip around the bay.
