Comments and Feedback
Our team had to face some challenges this week. Three of us got sick and some of us went on holiday, thus we only had two divers conducting underwater survey, However, those of us who couldn't dive provided surrface support to our divers and collected 4.91 kg of rubbish on the beach.
