During the course of your Ocean Initiative, did you find and collect biocarriers?Non
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.La plage était plutôt propre, d'après l'ONG locale, elle est souvent nettoyée. Malgré ça nous avons trouvé beaucoup d'emballages qui ont été abandonnées et beaucoup de matériel de pèche dont un gros engin de pèche abandonné qui doit servir sur des chalutiers ou des dragueurs. Petite curiosité, nous avons trouvé une cigarette électronique à usage unique.
