Do not hesitate to ask us questions about the wastes you have found or to write us anything that seems useful for the Ocean Initiatives. Feel free, the best ideas never remain stowed in the drawers.Il ne semblait pas y avoir beaucoup de déchets mais finalement, beaucoup de petits déchets et beaucoup de fils de pêches entremêlés dans les algues; Les plus gros déchets le long des pieds de dunes + sachets plastique pour cacas de chiens ! Il existe un bac à marée hors été et beaucoup ont l'habitude de ramasser, le rétablissement des poubelles publiques de tri à Saint Hilaire de Riez nous a permis de faire le tri !
