Project AWARE International Underwater Clean Up Day


Project AWARE International Underwater Clean Up Day (on 25th September 2010) is an annual event aimed at raising awareness of the importance of conserving our underwater world and encouraging marine conservation activity. This is an extraordinary global opportunity to take action and help address the underwater issues that concern us most.

Borneo Dream will be hosting a coral reef clean up event in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia on the 2nd October 2010. Here we will enjoy two dives cleaning up coral reefs (to be chosen by Sabah Parks). The price for this diving day trip (2 dives) is RM75 per diver.




I have joined this event with Borneo Dream some time around March this year and it was something which I always wanted to participate in. And guess what, I totally love it! When we did our leisure dive, we often overlooked on the debris that were remained underwater, perhaps maybe we were too excited to see some fishes. But for this event, we have the opportunity to make changes without getting our excitement run in our way. I had fun when I did this for the first time and it was a privilege to help protect our underwater world.

The cost for this special Event will be donated for the use of Borneo Dream's boats (Borneo Dream 3 and their new RIB), dive gear, Dive Professionals, cylinders and providing lunch for participants.
