Ask for your pocket ashtray for free!
This is the start of the “Monaco Zéro Mégot” operation for the 2022 summer season.
This summer again, the Principality is committed to the fight against pollution. In partnership with the Société Monégasque d’Assainissement (SMA) and the Direction du Tourisme et des Congrès (DTC), the Town Hall of Monaco is developing solutions to reduce waste.
Since last year, the beaches of the Principality have become non-smoking during the summer season. To go further and protect the coast and the marine environment, an awareness campaign on the harmful effects of cigarette butts and waste in general will be produced throughout the Principality.

Agents will take turns to distribute ashtrays in strategic locations such as the surroundings of the beaches, the Solarium but also throughout Monaco-Ville. Obviously, awareness and dialogue help to raise awareness among tourists and residents of the Principality.
To complete the mobile action, pocket ashtrays will also be available in fixed locations such as information kiosks, the SMEG boutique and common sites (media library, Stade Nautique Rainier III, etc.).
