In September 2024, Curaçao will host two significant events: PADI AWARE Week and World Clean-Up Day. PADI AWARE Week, from September 14-22, focuses on marine conservation and the protection of Curaçao’s diverse underwater ecosystems, crucial for the local economy and tourism. Participants can engage in activities like underwater clean-ups and coral restoration. World Clean-Up Day on September 21 emphasizes combating terrestrial pollution, which significantly impacts marine environments. Both events highlight the importance of community involvement in protecting Curaçao’s natural beauty and ensuring the future health of both land and sea.
