Why is it that scuba divers and surfers are some of the strongest advocates of ocean conservation? Because they've spent time in and around the ocean, and they've personally seen the beauty, the fragility, and even the degradation of our planet's blue heart.

but they all contain water. Just as religions do - they all contain truths.

Dokaz da naši ronioci zaista nekada obavljaju vrlo opasan posao je i ova priča iz Makarske.

Makarska: Ronioci izvukli granate niz mora Projektile koji su u moru najvjerojatnije od Drugog svjetskog rata pronašao je slučajno jedan lokalni ronilac

Today, at 12 pm, the city of P**a was officially assigned to the second white flag, as proof of clean sea on the beach Valkane. Also, the city of P**a became the holder of the electronic white flag, the version to be given to companies, brands, and all holders of White Flag.

The ceremony was attended by Mayor of P**a, Boris Miletic and deputy of Istrian mayor, Giuseppina Rajko. The organizers of this action are White Flag International, e- White Flag and Global Underwater Awareness Association (Guwaa) and action has been carried out by divers of diving club Orca.

During cleaning, divers found a large quantity of rubber, glass, iron and plastic, which was then removed from the seabed and thus fulfilled all the criteria for the award of White flags.

As a carrier of two White flags, P**a serves as an example to other Croatian towns, and cities of the world.

Danas, u 12 h, svečano je dodijeljena 2. Bijela zastava, kao dokaz čistog podmorja, kupalistu Valkane u Puli. Ujedno je grad P**a postala nositelj i elektronske Bijele zastave, inačice koja se dodijeljuje kompanijama, brandovima i svim nositeljima Bijelih zastava.

Svečanosti su prisustvovali gradonačelnik P**e Boris Miletić te zamjenica istarskog župana Giuseppina Rajko. Organizatori ove akcije su White Flag International, e- White Flag te Global Underwater Awarness Association (Guwaa), a akciju čišćenja podmorja proveli su ronioci ronilačkog kluba Orca.

Tijekom čišćenja, u moru je pronadena velika količina gume, stakla, željeza i plastike koja je potom izvađena iz podmorja te su tako ispunjeni svi kriteriji za dodjelu Bijele zastave.

Kao nosioc već dvije Bijele zastave, grad P**a služi kao primjer drugim hrvatskim gradovima, ali i gradovima svijeta
