Turtle Dive and Watersports Center is now a PADI Eco-Center!
As the first PADI Eco-Center in Watamu, we are committed to the core values of conservation and sustainability in the diving industry and actively contribute to the preservation of biodiversity.
We are committed to protecting the oceans and promoting sustainable practices. Our staff are highly trained and follow the strict guidelines of Greenfins membership. We ensure that our activities have as little impact as possible on the sensitive ecosystem of our underwater world and help to reduce marine litter.
We support local environmental protection organizations and participate in projects such as coral restoration programs and data collection for the protection of sea turtles.
We are also active on land, supporting beach cleanups to keep our beautiful nature and beaches clean.
Turtle Dive participates in the PADI
‘Adopt The Blue’ program!
PADI and Blancpain (official partner of the PADI Blueprint for Ocean Action and founding partner of the PADI Marine Reserve Program and ADOPT THE BLUE) are working on a project to accelerate the establishment of marine reserves in collaboration with local communities around the world. At the heart of this multi-year partnership is the flagship Adopt The Blue program, in which 6,600 registered PADI Dive Centers and Resorts are developing the largest network of marine protected areas on the planet, enabling millions of PADI recreational divers to actively engage in marine conservation at every opportunity.
To support this program, we have decided to take care of our inner reef ‘Turtle Reef’ and implement active measures for its protection and preservation. We look forward to your support.
