PADI Dive Against Debris - 6 June 2026 AUC Community Action Day

After an hour of diving and snorkeling, looking for debris, it is loaded into kayaks and towed ashore where it is weighed, sorted and logged in the PADI Dive Against Debris database.

  • Dive Site: Simpson Bay Corner
  • Total Debris: 23kg / 50lbs
  • Total # of Pieces: 91
  • Most Interesting Item: Pointer stick (our Divemaster lost 2 clean-up dives ago)
  • Items of Most concern: Glass

One day we hope to dive this site and find not a single piece of trash!!
