Probably brought in by the current. Some of the food packages found are from China based on the label (mandarin not cantonese)
We found three items that were two big/already became part of the reef for the two of us to remove:
1 tire (77)
1 buoy (12)
1 item we could not identify, probably used for fishing
Please see pictures for your reference
One of the tree items we could not remove, please see pictures.

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.

The local government decided to dump thousands of tons of quarry sand onto the beach to make it bigger and failed to carry out any study as to the correct construction or type of sand required. This has resulted in the sand simply being washed into the bay. It now looks like a pea soup bay. The fish, dolphins and everything else have all gone. All that is left on the beach is very sharp gravel which is impossible to walk on if you want to make a shore entry. All of this done behind closed doors and without consultation.
I hope you can the damage that is being done
