Cleaning operations on removal of seaweeds begin on Cabarete beaches
PUERTO PLATA .- In response to the concern about the large cluster of algae that accumulated on the beach of Cabarete, local businessmen with the support of tourism authorities undertook a cleaning operation.
The Association of Entrepreneurs of Cabarete directed by Carlos Atahualpa Paulino began the cleaning work on the beach there.
“When this type of situation occurs, it causes a considerable decrease in the visit of tourists to the beach of Cabarete, so we call on all authorities and interested to join these cleaning work,” said Paulino.
To remove dozens of tons of sargazo seaweed that invaded the beaches of Cabarete, heavy equipment was contracted – a shovel and two trucks volteos, which, together with brigades of the Ministry of Tourism, cleaned the whole environment.
The unexpected arrival of a tidal wave of sargazo seaweed took over the beaches of Cabarete which is adverse to the delight and recreation of thousands of natives and tourists who regularly visit Cabarete, located in the eastern part of Puerto Plata.
