As part of the service „Underwater inventory, 2 underwater, and above-sea cleaning actions”, Sunce will carry out underwater research and photo documentation of the present species and marine habitats, which will be used to create guides and communication-educational materials about the beauties of the undersea of the Vis archipelago. The goal of the project, of which this service is a part, is to educate the youngest groups about the sea that surrounds them and the importance of its preservation.

Due to man’s irresponsible behavior, the marine ecosystem is under increasing pressure every day, and one of the key problems is marine litter, in the sea and on the coast. We strive to reduce this negative impact and educate the public about this issue by cleaning beaches and underwater areas and implementing marine litter monitoring.
