Description

We will be a group of around 30 people counting the people that is coming with the company and 2 people who are delivering the activity.
In this activity we will be mainly adults and few kids.
We will collect the litter from the beach in groups, dividing them in teams that will go around the shore and other team further up from the water level, so we can appreciate the different kind of litter we find in the different parts of the beach.
