Diving Division

Our eyes in the sea

In 1989 the activity of the Diving Division of Marevivo began with the aim of actively involving the world of diving in initiatives aimed at monitoring the state of health of the sea, prevent the mechanisms of degradation and alteration of the marine ecosystem and activate actions aimed at the knowledge, enhancement and dissemination of marine heritage.

The Diving Division has a National Coordination whose task is to organize and support demonstrations in defense of the sea, counter situations of illegality, promote research campaigns in the Italian seabed of greatest biological interest; it also collects the membership of bodies, clubs, associations, diving or individual divers, and to assist them in the implementation of initiatives aimed at knowledge and enhancement of the sea.

Collection of used tyres

The Division supports the collection of unused tyres illegally abandoned on the seabed. The project, promoted from Marevivo and the Ecotyre, shows an extraordinary collection on the land and in the sea of PFU in particular in the backdrops of the harbour areas.

The campaign

Collection of ghost nets

The Division organizes the removal of nets and fishing gears abandoned in the Marine Protected Areas, thanks to the support of its divers and of Marine Protected Areas authorities. Ghost nets are one of the biggest threats to marine animals and it is estimated that 640,000 tonnes of them end up in the oceans every year.

The campaign

Testimonial

To support our Diving Division, which in 2019 celebrated its 30 years of activity, joined the freediving champions Mariafelicia Carraturo and Gianluca Genoni. Having them by our side will allow us to broaden our knowledge of the depths.
