Our Dive Team and Marine Patrol Unit were proud to spend time with our community on Sunday morning cleaning up beautiful Sarasota Bay! Our officers joined Sarasota Bay Watch, Scuba Quest Sarasota, Sarasota Bay Estuary Program and the City of Sarasota, Government, to take on the shoreline to remove debris both above and below the water.
Jet-skiers and kayakers helped communicate with divers and assisted in debris transfer from divers to collection sites. The topside crew retrieved trash from the shoreline. They also measured, weighed and bagged the debris while returning entrapped sea life back to the water.
Together, we're helping protect wildlife, waterways and the beauty that makes Sarasota Bay so special π
