Additional Information
There's a beach club where people pay the entry fee and spend time on the beach with food, beverage, etc right next to the BubbleJack dive centre. People don't really care to throw garbage on the beach and just let them flow into the sea. Adress : Umbrella Beach, Buyong Rd, Maribago, Lapu-Lapu City, 6015 Cebu It used to be a helmet dive shop but it changed into local beach club.
Plastic(bags, bottles, food wrappings etc) : Because it's household waste from people on the beach.
Fishing line : I don't know exactly why but there are a lot underwater
Glass bottles : people love to drink beer
