Additional Information
Although it was very windy all day (6 beaufort) and there were a lot of medium waves, no debris was washed ashore. This diving spot is very popular, a lot of divers come from abroad to dive here. These divers are very disciplined in clean diving. The only objects found that don't belong in the water is lost equipment (very rare) which can be recuperated, not thrwon away.
