I was there this past week on the south side of the island and removed several pieces of plastic, both small and large, that were floating in the water. The smaller pieces appeared to have been through a chipper and were sharp.
We were in Bermuda 4 times last year and the water was pristine. This year visits, 4 times, were a little disappointing due to the plastic and trash floating in the water.
Are ships dumping the trash in the water?
