Fusion Freediving and Yoga held a beach clean-up and static apnea competition from November 10th to 11th at The Griya Villas and SPA in Amed, Bali.

More than 40 students participated in cleaning up the beach and waters of Jemeluk Bay. In total, 51 volunteers help to collect 158 kg of trash which would otherwise have ended up in the ocean .
