Artisanal fishing is frequent in the area


This site was prioritized by artisanal fishers as one that needs frequent cleaning, but we did not find as many items as expected.

This clean up was carried out by a group of local divers from the communities of the Gulf of Tribugá, as part of the project “Managing ghost fishing in the Colombian Pacific with a community-based strategy” https://iki-small-grants.de/project/managing-ghost-fishing-in-the-colombian-pacific-with-a-community-based-strategy/
