Kidz At Sea SXM Coastal Cleanup Project Offers “Discover Scuba Dive” Youth Day

September 28, 2022 12:28 pm

Kidz at Sea’s SXM Coastal CleanUp program invites St. Maarten youth of the ages 12-21 years old to a Discover Scuba Dive pool day on Saturday the 8th of October 2022.

Come join us for a FREE introductory session which will last about 3 hours.

Guided by our dive instructors you will learn the basic skills of scuba diving and get to practice breathing underwater in the swimming pool.

The Nature Foundation Sint Maarten will be on hand for an environmental discussion, highlighting points on how we can collectively reduce single-use waste.

There will be several different start times during the day. Space is limited, so please note that advance REGISTRATION is a MUST, and can be done via WhatsApp on +17215267463 or via email at sxmcoastal@gmail.com. .

This community outreach is part of Kidz at Sea’s “SXM Coastal CleanUp” program which teaches a growing team of local youth how to scuba dive and perform underwater cleanups, to maintain a clean environment free of hurricane debris and litter so that our marine life, as well as our population, can enjoy the beautiful natural habitat that our island has to offer.

This project is part of R4CR’s rebuilding of a stronger and cleaner Sint Maarten under its Trust Fund (administered by VNGI, and overseen by The World Bank).
