Comments and Feedback

Good morning, I’m Carlo from Idive Diving Center, Makadi Bay, Hurghada, Red Sea, Egypt I am sending you this record file of the World Clean Up Day that we carried out today on September 20, 2024 in collaboration with Fort Arabesque Hotel, Villas & SPA At 10:00 am we gathered at IDive Makadi Bay and after a detailed Briefing we prepared the equipment and began our Dive against Debris activity. The area we sifted was very large as there were 37 of us and it is the sandy area, the one covered by Clump Seagrass and the reef area around us. The participants were 37 Divers and 10 people out of the water.
