60 volunteers hauled a record 4,380 kina to shore!

Volunteers spread out along Kau Bay and set up three kina landing and counting stations. Scuba divers and free divers then worked the areas and kayakers ferried full bags of kina to the shore stations for counting. Overall we have now removed over 16,000 kina from the project area with the help of 200 volunteers. 

Thanks to all iwi, hapū and community members who joined as volunteers, to Wellington Underwater Club for marking the removal areas and preparing the site, and to Dive HQ for running the in-water part of the event.
