Debris Free Bonaire was first set up in October 2012 by Dive Friend Carolyn Caprusso. Back then, we never anticipated the project to be such a huge success! The response we received from locals and visitors to Bonaire was overwhelming - from the start we had a great turn outs for our clean-up events. Within a short amount time, we gathered a number of volunteers and sponsors - local and international. It is encouraging to see how many people care for the oceans and support our project!
The core of the initial Debris Free Bonaire project has been consistently ongoing across the island; motivated and passionate people just like you, grabbing a mesh bag, filling it up with trash, and returning it to Dive Friends @ Hamlet Oasis. Since the launch of Debris Free Bonaire in 2012, multiple groups of people have started larger scale initiatives.
With such a high interest level and participation across the island to keep Bonaire debris free, Debris Free Bonaire made the decision to re-brand and re-launch in the beginning of 2018. We aim to help facilitate bringing these groups together, because united we can have an even greater impact on keeping Bonaire clean for generations to come.

Debris Free Bonaire is a movement dedicated to reducing the amount of marine debris on and around Bonaire. We empower volunteers to work together in cleaning up and reporting debris, and to practice more sustainable actions in daily life that directly impact the health of our oceans and planet. Together, we can make a difference. |
