Around 150 volunteers took part in a sea bed cleaning operation in Torrox yesterday, removing some fifty kilos of rubbish from the area near the mouth of the river Torrox.
The event was organised by the Junta de Andalucía and the Torrox Town Hall with the collaboration of the Asociación Universitaria de Actividades Subacuáticas (Auas) and the Aula del Mar (Aquatic Museum).
During three hours of diving, plastic bottles, nets, wire and a number of tyres were amongst the items removed from the sea bed.
