We would like to say a huge "thank you" to all our guests who signed an online petition demanding stronger protection of sharks worldwide. For the whole of July we provided a dedicated laptop at our Naama Bay dive centre, to encourage divers to sign the petition. The petition was launched by Project AWARE Foundation and AWARE divers worldwide, after the conference of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), held in Qatar in March, failed to agree on proposals to restrict trade in eight shark species. It's not too late to show your support by
signing the petition. Check back with us for details of our events during
European Shark Week, 9-17 October 2010.
