The increase in tourism in Croatia’s Milna Bay has left the waters full of trash. To try to reduce the environmental impact, a group of volunteer divers carried out cleaning work, especially at this busy time in the country’s marinas.
Cans, cups, plates and even a tractor tire were found in those waters.
Experts say the explanation lies in the increase in tourism in the region. Milna Bay, in Croatia, is one of the most famous marinas in the country, and therefore one of the most visited.
To try to reduce the environmental impact, several volunteer divers carried out an underwater cleaning action. It’s the fourth this year.
The clean-up action is organized by a local diving club, especially at a time of busiest activity in the country’s marinas.
Experts say these cleaning actions are necessary to protect marine life and maintain ecological balance.
This at a time when the Adriatic Sea has passed by numerous challenges, such as climate change.
