This location is on the same island near the dive site ADS323 - Tung Ping Chau, however this is a different site, it's about 0.7 km away from the above mentioned registered site.
There were a few big items we could not remove, please see pictures for your reference
- 1 Tire
- 2 big plastic containers

We found a coral covered with a broken tarp bag, that we slowly and carefully removed (see picture). I have counted it as a plastic bag, however i am not sure if that is the right identifications, please advise us for future reference.

1 tire (77)
1 buoy (12)
1 item we could not identify, probably used for fishing
Please see pictures for your reference

Great group of people turned out from far away countries to local dive guides to help remove debris and protect our ocean! We are finding more and more support from the other dive centers in our area and hope that doing these Dive and Debris surveys will become popular. Conditions were good but there was some strong current at the end of our dive. We managed to still come away with a good amount of debris though. Thanks again to everyone that helped us with our adopted dive site, our house reef, the famous USAT Liberty wreck!

Fake plastic garden decorations - Bali's economy is dependent on tourism, and decorative plastic plants could be due to the pressure of maintaining the islands' reputation for natural beauty.
Burnt unidentified materials - burning waste is a massive problem all over Indonesia, and has become part of the culture. However, it's a method of waste disposal where there is no efficient system implemented.
SCUBA regulator mouthpiece - likely from a diver experiencing a split regulator mouthpiece when underwater during their dive and discarding it irresponsibly from some sense of convenience.
