Let’s learn about the marine ecosystems with water sports such as kayaking, paddle surfing, big paddle surfing, sailing and/or beach clean-up; on beaches in Barcelona, El Maresme or Castelldefels, just 25 minutes away from Barcelona. During 1h30 min you will discover the treasures of the sea while contributing to beach clean up, then we will share the treasures found and reflect on the waste in the marine ecosystem. You will complement the cleaning with 1h30min of water sports where you will also solve questions about the impact that humans have generated in the marine ecosystem and its importance for life. The group that collects the most waste and gets the most correct answers will receive a prize. At the end we will offer a meal in a beach bar atmosphere.
