    Mevagissey Clean Up 2019

    30th March 19 - We had an excellent day at Mevagissey, despite having to change location last minute because of the poor diving conditions at Port Gaverne.

The divers were well looked after by Rob and Nat in Odyssey Innovation Ltd kayaks leading them safely from the harbour to the dive site and back. The kayakers were really usefu

    Talland Bay Clean Up

    We are a group of volunteer Marine Conservationists who refuse to stand by, whilst our seas turn into uninhabitable dumping grounds​.

    “The global marine debris problem is one of the greatest threats our planet has ever encountered. Divers are in a unique position to assist in tackling this threat. Industrial practices and legislation need to change, so our fight is a big one. We believe, by working together to raise awareness, that we are in a position to take on what appeared at first to be; the impossible”
