Inflatable boat on the seabed: Who will clean up Port d'Andratx?
How Mallorca Could Prevent More Seabed Waste
Mallorca could reduce seabed waste with regular checks, clearer reporting and better recovery support.
Published: April 22, 2026

Answer
What would help prevent underwater rubbish in Mallorca harbours?
Regular sonar checks, dive inspections after storms, and a better reporting system would make a big difference. Mallorca would also benefit from clearer rules for lost inflatable boats, plus support for certified recovery teams. Without that kind of structure, cleanup tends to stay reactive rather than preventive.
