The world famous event is set to sail from 5th - 8th June who wants to participate with 100 other ships, no need for sailing knowledge, you will get during the trip. Registration 250e + 100e food. Maybe not the fastest, but we plan to make it a memorable experience.
We plan to reconstruct a pirate ship, interested, please contact us for details. We start with small boats but the vision is to operate a real large scale ship in Brindisi, other ships can be in other harbours no problem.
We continue to make a difference to our Brindisi shores, but there are many more beaches to clean and we will never stop. Saturday 21st February we once again ventured with a beautiful afternoon sun down to the beachfront. It was discouraging to see how much rubbish continues to be washed up onto our beachfront. But better in the bin than on the beach. Millions of micro plastic and these weird tiny straws, polystyrene and in the tall glass, lay what seems like a million plastic bottles.
In total, our bags weighed up at approx 125 kg - 140 kg. So to really start making a dent in this beach clean mission we really need to up the ante and more hands will make swift work. So we are asking you all to invite friends and family to join us on Sunday 7th March at 11am.
As we cannot cover every beach in all the regions and all of us have our own busy schedules, we ask you to download the Clean Swell App which registers how much litter you clean from beaches. So, if you visit a beach in your own time with family or friends, you can register your own collection- every bag collected helps save marine life.
Just fill in your name and details but make sure to put the GROUP as "PIRATES OF APULIA" so we can have a collective total
