Comments and Feedback
Resort guests collect plastic bags and other items during every regular dive. These items are collected from all dive-sites in the area over the course of a week and then counted and weighted. We will try as much as we can to fill this for every week. Therefore the information at the start of the survey (area covered, number of participants etc) is not acuarate as this is not a target clean-up activity, but more a continues process.
