Today's Dive Against Debris was a first for one of our junior divers. Grace has worked on her buoyancy through PADI PPB Specialty and whilst developing as an Advanced Open Water Diver. As a conscious diver Grace stands out as an ambassador in her natural environment and is growing a passion for the marine litter issue that the world is facing.
Although, the survey stipulates to count only divers on scuba, our Dive Against Debris sessions wouldn't be the same without the surface communication of freedivers. Usually Island Dive's Jay points divers in the right direction to ensure we cover the most efficient dive pattern during our Dive Against Debris and is also a welcomed addition to guiding the lift bag of collected trash back towards the shore. He is also training other freedivers to assist with our Dive Against Debris events, for maximum efficiency is marine litter removal.
Tiny crabs and shrimps were found entangled in the debris once we got it to land, however much the team tried to check and empty cans, they hid within the rotting leaves and held on tight, we did not keep count correctly. They were mainly in the cans and cloth. They were returned immediately to the ocean and swam away happily!
A toy frying pan!
Early in the week we had terrible storms with lots of rain. For the past few days the wind has dropped and it has been a hot Caribbean summer!

Micro plastic fragments- They could have been ingested by marine life and seabirds
Plastic carrier bags- if they are floating around or stuck in the sand they could look like food or homes for marine life
Plastic cutlery- they are brittle and break easily and then they become small enough to look like food

We managed to release 4 entangled edible and spider crabs but there were too many for us to try and release. Many of the crabs are still alive. Sadly there was a entangled big lobster which had died.
The nets have been marked and hopefully will get them removed in the next 2 weeks.
