This information is for Dive 1 of 2 for International Coastal Cleanup Day. Thank you to our participants, not just our divers, but our snorkelers who provided surface support, shuttling debris back to the hard-working captain who did almost all of the sorting while the divers where down below! Huge Mahalo to everyone involved and to the owner of Extended Horizons for pulling the boat out of service for the day to enable this great event!
This area of the island is a regular fishing spot for residents, as well as a popular dive and snorkel site. While we were conducting our cleanup dives, land-based fishermen arrived and started casting. Regular use seems to be the contributing factor.
Calm wind. South swell.

1.5960518345317, 124.78344077686

The dive site is a wall which is at the end of Bunaken Jetty where a lot of boats come in and out of every day, so any of the rubbish that goes into the water falls off the edge of the wall if it doesn't get stuck in the coral. There is a lot of fishing line and rope that has been there for a long time and has encrusting coral all over it.
