Caulerpa taxifolia Removal - Thurs 6th

Come join the last FREE dive with Pro Dive, as group of passionate divers clean up the invasive Caulerpa taxifolia weed in the Quarantine Bay area in the afternoon on Thursday the 6th of April.

On board there will be a NSW Fisheries AquaticPests officer who will be on hand to provide training. Divers will be taught how to recognise Caulerpa taxifolia as well as the native seagrasses this work is designed to protect. The officer will describe the preferred method of removing and bagging the weed in order to minimise any fragmentation and further distribution of Caulerpa taxifolia.

If you are interested in joining this dive please contact us as soon as possible because spaces filling up fast!

Previous dives have shown that the weed is fairly abundant in the North Harbour Aquatic Reserve.

 

Bush Regeneration - Reef Beach, Balgowlah Heights

These monthly bush regeneration activities are a great chance to socialise with your fellow HarbourKeepers, help look after Sydney Harbour and take in the scenic views! Newcomers will learn new skills while regenerating the natural bushland around Reef Beach.

Bush regeneration at this site is conducted in conjunction with the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS). NPWS provide training for beginners so that everyone could get involved no matter what their level of experience.
