At Light House dive site while conducting deep-diving of Dive Master Course at a depth of 30 m we saw a lot of debris at a depth of 38 m we decided that we dive again the next day to collect the output of this rubble. I'd imagine that the rubble would be too heavy depending on its size, but when we reach the depth as we inspecting the rubble we found it is only component of fabric and very light in weight, we started to fill our mash bags till they are filled completely but still see around much of the debris hidden partially in the sand, the maximum time approached to stay in the depth so we were forced to start our ascent with a bit of disappointment that we did not bring enough bags. in the bright side we managed to take out about Thirty kilograms of decaying fabrics consisting of polyester material. Many thanks to all who contributed in the dive: Bilal Dive Master Trainee, Scuba Seeker and Big Blue Dahab Dive Resorts, Protecting marine life in Dahab will help our future.
