A great day organised by Sea Shepherd! A northerly wind meant that a huge amount of rubbish had washed onto shore. Sea Shepherds group of 45 volunteers did an amazing job and pulled in more rubbish than ever before!
Our group of four divers pulled up 6 full catch bags of mostly glass bottles and a few metal scraps from a car. This was the second clean up at Shark bay this year and still there is no shortage of debris to pick up. Had we had more time and divers there is no doubt we would have made an even bigger impact to the site.
