At Nautal, we firmly believe in our values to be helpful, passionate and knowledgeable. We take pride in being SMART. In order to be the #SmartSailors we strive to be, we must have a clean sea. Below, find 7 tips to save the sea and preserve this essential environment.

We Can Change Our Future

It is common knowledge that plastic is an enormous problem for nature and our wonderful sea animals. Every day we see pictures of turtles trapped in six-pack rings and seals stuck in nets. But have you ever considered that everyone plays a small part in the cause of this without even thinking about it? So together, let’s take responsibility for our seas every day!

One good practice is to educate ourselves about the ocean and the challenges it faces.

Read about 7 simple steps you can take to protect the sea whilst sailing:

1 – Recycle and reuse! Avoid single-use plastics
2 – Opt for biodegradable cleaning products. These are less harsh on the environment before, during and after use. 
3 – Don’t throw anything overboard. Keep your rubbish in a bin, and discard it properly once you’ve arrived at your destination. 
4 – Reduce Fuel Usage
 
5 – Wear eco-friendly sunscreen. It will have less negative impacts on the marine environment around you as you snorkel, swim and dive. 
6 – Don’t disturb marine wildlife

Last but not least…

7 – If you are sailing in the Mediterranean, anchor properly to prevent damage to Posidonia. Depending on the ground you’re anchoring on, you might use different anchors to avoid damaging the seabed.

Here at Nautal, we truly LOVE the sea and the fact it allows us to enjoy incredible sailing adventures! So together, let’s take responsibility for our seas every day! And if you have any extra advice to save the seas, please leave it in the comment section below!
