Let's take concrete action for our environment!
In order to take concrete action for the environment, we actively seek solutions on a daily basis to reduce our impact and improve the health of our surroundings. ODYSSEY Diving operates on three levels:
-
By regularly collaborating with environmental associations in New Caledonia. For example, we participate in the annual monitoring of coral reef health with the association Pala Dalik l'écho du récif.
-
Through everyday practices such as maximizing the use of mooring buoys and utilizing durable, non-disposable equipment.
-
By planting trees in New Caledonia through our partnership with the CaledoClean association. This helps in restoring habitats and making meaningful contributions to carbon offsetting.
We are committed to making a positive difference and ensuring a sustainable future for our environment.
