About the event
The islands offer a wide variety of beautiful cliffs and underwater caves to explore. This trail was planned in the Comino Island Natural Park where Watch The Sea was working with ERA to get permission to run a litter collection trail. The data collected was shared in our first waste report (also found on ReMed Zero Plastic).
This week-long journey took us to the islands of Malta, Comino and Gozo. With permission to access the island of Comino also by land during the night, we were able to explore its beautiful coast. The litter we encountered was tied to our bags, brought ashore and later identified for the ERA (Environment and Resources Authority).
Amazing location on the island of Gozo where we bivouacked just in front of this exceptional island, which was visited at night by hundreds and thousands of seabirds whose voices we recorded. The water temperature seemed unusually low at 15°C for this time of year.
