Last day of the campaign
Last day of the campaign, the wind was high and we were trying to find a place to put the ROV out into the water one more time. We could do 5 new ROV dives in the bottoms around Sa Dragonera Island, as we considered the SCI (Site of Community Importance) Sa Dragonera should be expanded to increase its ecological value. We found rhodoliths beds and sand bottoms with several rocks and plenty of sponges, gorgonians and soft and hard corals.
Finally we arrived to Mallorca; the campaign is over. We will keep working with all this information to ensure the protection of the rich and threatened marine biodiversity.
