Additional Information
We have been diving in this beautiful dive site - Umapura, Alor and during diving I’ve noticed unusual amount of clothing so we decided to go back and do dive against debris. In my opinion wind takes the clothes from nearest village and also kids that are playing in the area are leaving their clothes before swimming and they are being washed away
Just the amount of clothes
