The voluntary organisation Zibel held another one of their fruitful clean-ups over the weekend – this time at the bay just below Tigne Point – at which a whopping 1,320kg of marine waste was collected.

78 volunteers came together with the common aim of making our seas a cleaner place to swim in, and for marine life to live in. Items collected include several tyres, large metal objects and even a massive piece of cloth.

Zibel takes the opportunity to remind everyone that the goal of having cleaner seas ‘starts with you’ – that each and every one of us is responsible for keeping Malta and Gozo’s seas as clean as possible.
