It was quite shocking
January 04, 2025by: Roam LangevinProgram: Portugal – Marine Conservation in LisbonWhile diving, we found a metal safety barrier that had fallen into the marina. The next day we returned with a lift bag to get it out, and found a second. We successfully removed both, but the second was encrusted with a bit of life. As it sat on the pier, a baby eel came out of a hollow section and started flopping around on the deck of the pier! It was quite shocking, but we put it back into the water and it was all fine.
Had a great time
December 03, 2023by: LiekeProgram: Portugal – Marine Conservation in LisbonAfter removing two bags of fishing equipment that were stuck under the rocks and left, i looked up right in the eyes of the biggest crab that I’ve ever seen in my entire life, and it just stood there, watching us cleaning his home. That made an incredible impression on me and i don’t think I’ll ever forget that.
