Abundance and composition of beach litter was assessed for 161 beaches in Greece, with the participation of volunteers in 2010, 2011 and 2012. This study showed that plastic is the dominant litter material (43-51%) while plastic lids from water/beverage bottles are the most affluent (8-12%) litter item regarding former use. Recreational activities seem to account for more than 20% of the beach litter load in the Greek coasts
