The Downbelow x Rip Curl Marine Conservation Program 2017 is a joint event between Downbelow Marine & Wildlife Adventures and Rip Curl Malaysia with the objective to raise awareness, educate, and encourage action towards the global problem of marine debris and the importance of preserving our coral reefs. With this collaboration we hope to motivate people to become ocean heroes and join the movement in protecting our seas.
This event is fully sponsored by the Downbelow & Rip Curl partnership and will be held on the 19th of November, 2017 at Downbelow PADI 5 Star IDC Dive Centre in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, Sabah Borneo where 100 participants will take part in marine conservation activities on-site and this understand why we must all fight the good fight to save the ocean environment.
Through the event, we want to show that anybody can be an ocean hero irrespective of whether you are a scuba diver, snorkeler or non-swimmer, all you need to take part is a desire to make a difference. Marine conservation activities are fun and a hero's way of life is rewarding !
As part of this event we are fundraising for two important charities where 100% of the proceeds will be channelled to the Project AWARE Foundation and SPCA Kota Kinabalu (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Kota Kinabalu).
Thank you Downbelow x Ripcurl for raising funds for our furry friends .... I wish I could take them all back home, but logistically impossible (and I don't think my anti allergens in my body will appreciate it) so this is the least I can do.... xoxo

Over the past 15 years, Downbelow Marine & Wildlife Adventures S/B has established itself as a leading conservation and education provider locally and on the international platform. At Downbelow, we are committed to responsible tourism. We design experiences and provide courses that foster appreciation, awareness and conservation of our environment and development of local people. In the course of this labour of love, our effort has been acknowledged by various publications and awards and we have been part of the Project AWARE movement, connecting divers across the globe to protect underwater environments for almost two decades.
We also support SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Kota Kinabalu). We have built and donated a Cat Shelter at SPCA's new permanent premises in Sabah, Malaysia. With the project completed in February 2017, Downbelow continue to support the shelter which is now home to 90 cats. SPCA Kota Kinabalu still need donations from the public to continue the great work they do.
