Comments and Feedback
Twenty Two years of underwater cleanups! It was a warm day to dive and our team of three divers spent about an hour collecting trash and other man made objects off of the bottom. We saw more fishermen along the shoreline then fish underwater! We will be back next year with a larger team if they eliminate the Covid19 virus.
