The Agency Bahamas Hosts Successful Beach Clean-up at Jaws Beach Just in Time for Earth Day

#TheBahamas, April 23, 2023 – Volunteers organized by a leading real estate agency synonymous with luxury marked Earth Day in hands-on, dress down fashion — with sleeves rolled up and garbage bags in tow for a seaside clean-up at Jaws Beach, Nassau, April 21.

The project was the latest community initiative sponsored by The Agency Bahamas , the local branch of a franchise that has been a trailblazer in marketing upscale properties.

“Our first year has been incredibly buoyant, exceeding all expectations, and we wanted to give back to the community,” said Danny Lowe, Managing Director of the Bahamas arm of the California-based firm. “We brought together volunteers from the local community, including environmentalists and concerned citizens who are passionate about protecting the earth.”

Armed with gloves, garbage bags, and determination to make a difference, the volunteers scoured the shores of Jaws Beach, picking up litter, plastic waste, remnants of parties and picnics and debris that had washed ashore.

They collected what Lowe called “a shocking amount of trash,” including plastic bottles, cigarette butts, food containers, and other debris that posed a threat to marine life.

“Because we wanted to raise awareness about protecting our oceans, reducing pollution and preserving our beautiful shorelines, we kicked the event off with a pep talk about the importance of our coast, our waters and marine life, not just for the beauty or the difference it makes to our livelihood but what coastal living and the waters of The Bahamas do for our soul and spirit,” said Bobby Chen, sales associate.

The firm that opened its doors in The Bahamas in October 2022 recently listed a 236-acre private island, Hummingbird Cay, in Exuma for $35 million. The Bahamas office is the third in the region for the boutique franchise that now operates some 80+ locales around the world focusing on extraordinary residential properties, including private islands, vast estates and sky-high penthouses. Its listings are so unique that Netflix has built a show around The Agency. That show is now entering its second season.
