Safety first! You cannot do this work alone, so we always use a spotter who oversees the situation when we lift fishing nets or objects. 👀

It's been 10 years since we were officially established as a global organization and it doesn't take many words to explain that it's worked out very well. To celebrate this we have released a 10 Years Anniversary T-shirt! 🤩 ghostdiving.shop
Very good photo composition that clearly shows the great danger of lost fishing gear for both animals and humans. 💀

A lost trammel net, just as active and dangerous to marine life (and divers) as if it weren't lost... what a mess. #ghostdiving #ghostfishing #ghostgear #spain #costabrava #fisheries @ghostdivinges @ghostdivingorg @healthyseas_org @HyundaiEurope

Retrieved nets, released lobsters & crabs - a successful day!🤘🦞
#volunteers were quite busy today with removing ghost gear from the #sea off the #CostaBrava during the first project day with @healthyseas_org & partners 😎
We're looking forward to retrieving a big net tomorrow🔱
Sometimes a lost fishing net becomes one with a shipwreck and becomes completely overgrown. We usually see this when the net is produced from a natural material instead of plastic. 🌱

Considering 640,000 tons #fishing gear is lost or abandoned in world's #seas and #oceans yearly, how many animals are being quietly lost? Millions! While foraging for food in their own natural environment. 😵

A reef wrapped in a fishing net so precisely it's hard to believe it was an accident. But it was. 😳
