Over a thousand kilos of waste was collected at one of our favourite beaches, Paradise Bay, which is located on the northern side of the island.

The NGO Żibel, along with activist Raniero Borg, the Saving Our Blue campaign, Dive Systems and the Alfred Mizzi Foundation made their way to the picturesque bay to give it a scrub.

“Paradise Bay once again gave us impressive totals: 394 plastic bottles, 172 jerry cans, 95 shoes and 345kg of ropes in huge knots,” shared the NGO. “This location always reminds us of how amazing our volunteers are. Every year it is truly humbling to see the dedication and effort put in by everyone on the beach, underwater and sorting on land – our hearts go out to you.”
