Close to one of the divesites we dived on, there have been a Hinduism festival just about a week ago. We found a lot of plastic material there
a Tyre
A 45 kg Wheel
the fishnets were partly very big and heavy, some of them up to 60kg
Comments and Feedback
The international Diving Center started with the help of Cinnamon Nature trails and the chaaya blu hotel this project exactly one month ago, on the 12th of May.
It was the first time for such an event in Sri Lanka. For the second one I asked all the other divecenters to join us, the result was amazing. In the end all divecenters from the eastcoast of Sri Lanka was here with at least one person.
Poseidon Diving Station, Scuba Lanka, Sri Lankan Diving Tours, Ypsylon diving, Deep Blue diving Center, Angel divers and The Dive Shop, all divecenters helped us. 7 boats with divers and helpers went out on this day, covering all dive sites in Trincomalee.
Such a new thing for this country, but the enthusiasm of all people was amazing.
I want to thank all this people who helped us, including Hannah Pragnell-Raasch who supported us!Thanks, Lydia
