On Sunday, September 20, 2026, we are hosting a special dive day with an additional mission: to clean up our dive site together. In the context of World Cleanup Day and the SSI Blue Oceans program we roll up our sleeves and enjoy the Grevelingen and Oosterschelde throughout the season. This is the time to give something back to the underwater life that makes these places so special. What are we going to do? - Remove litter along the shore and in the parking lot - Register found litter (citizen science via SSI Blue Oceans) - Create awareness about the protection of our waters Even if you are not a diver, you are welcome to participate. Please note that due to restrictions of the ARBO legislation, we cannot clean up waste under water. However, it is possible to make a dive separately from the clean-up action, guided or not. If you want to, please report to the dive center at least a week in advance to schedule this. Why participate? As divers, we see what ends up underwater: fishing lines, plastic, cans, rope debris... Every piece of trash that does not enter the water makes an immediate difference to lobsters, crabs, fish and cuttlefish.
We have the unique opportunity not only to enjoy the underwater world, but to actively protect it. Together we are making an impact. SSI Blue Oceans As an SSI dive school, we are actively committed to the Blue Oceans program: a global initiative focused on conservation, education and responsible diving. This clean-up day fits perfectly with our vision: enjoying Zeeland underwater while making sure it stays beautiful. Do you want to be there? Let us know and reserve your spot. Together we can keep our dive sites clean.
