Reality Check: Why the Seabed around Mallorca Is Still Full of Trash After the Season

Answer

Why does Palma’s Passeig Marítim matter in the discussion about sea pollution?

The Passeig Marítim in Palma reflects how closely harbour life, boat traffic and daily business activity are tied to what ends up in the sea. Loose ropes, cushions and other small items can move from boats and berths into the water and eventually settle on the seabed. It is a useful reminder that sea pollution around Mallorca often starts close to shore.
