Underwater
Clean Up Dives
Dive
Friends Bonaire, together with NetTech, N.V., organizes
and sponsors the quarterly Bonaire Underwater Clean Up
Dive. The dive usually occurs on the second Saturday
of every third month (January, April, July, and October)
between 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM, but dates may
change so as to not conflict with other events. On each
Clean Up Dive, a different area of Bonaire's coastal
reefs or beaches is selected and any trash which has
not become part of the reef is collected.
We invite
and welcome any participants who want to combine vacation
with doing the right thing for their reefs! Quarterly
cleanups give us the opportunity to focus on the removal
of new trash rather than disturbing the flora and fauna that
have taken up residence in older trash.
All
trash that is recovered is noted on the Center for Marine
Conservation data card and is recorded into the CMC's International
Marine Debris Database. The sponsors provide free air and
a potluck BBQ after this dive, but we do ask you to bring
a small side dish if you come to the BBQ.
Please RSVP or direct your questions to
Dive Friends Bonaire at +(599) 717-2929 or
email cleanup@dive-friends-bonaire.com.
