Extra Divers Qantab hosts the largest cleanup in Oman
On Friday, 19 September, Extra Divers Qantab will be organizing a major Reef & Beach Cleanup to mark World Cleanup Day. Together with the Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort, the Ministry of Environment, and the Environmental Society of Oman (NGO), we are joining forces to protect the ocean.
A total of 120 participants have already registered. Around 40 divers will be cleaning the reefs, removing trash and ghost nets, while the non-divers will focus on the beaches. Afterwards, everyone is invited to a BBQ at our dive center, sponsored by Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort.
This event marks the largest cleanup ever held in Oman – and it won’t stop here. Extra Divers Qantab plans to make this an annual initiative going forward.
Our goal is to raise awareness about the impact of single-use plastics on the oceans, to actively involve the community, and to encourage exchange with like-minded people in a friendly gathering afterwards.
