Ủy ban Điện ảnh & Ủy ban Du lịch Quần đảo Virgin thuộc Anh (BVI) đã công bố hợp tác với một số đối tác lặn trong BVI cho Tuần lễ xác tàu 2023 diễn ra từ ngày 12 đến ngày 18 tháng 2023 năm XNUMX.
British Virgin Islands Wreck Week được tạo ra để thu hút sự quan tâm và tạo niềm đam mê đại dương cho du khách và người dân.
BVI Wreck Week sẽ tổ chức một lễ kỷ niệm kéo dài bảy ngày nhằm thúc đẩy ngành công nghiệp lặn của Lãnh thổ.
It caters to all age groups and will feature music, food, festivities, and cultural components.
Wreck Week will showcase a host of activities around the BVI and will kick off with a Pirate Party at Hendo’s Hide-Out on Jost Van Dyke on February 12. The week includes coastal clean-ups, youth group meet-ups, quizzes, and fundraisers, and will highlight a Tortola Sloop presentation and demonstrations by the BVI Heritage Dancers. Wreck Week will culminate with the unveiling of an environmentally friendly giant turtle sculpture designed and created by Beyond the Reef.
Director of Tourism, Clive McCoy said, “We at the BVI Tourist Board & Film Commission are excited about this opportunity to join with our industry partners and the community at large at BVI Wreck Week. Marine and ecotourism events such as Wreck Week not only promote our diverse network of sites such as the RMS Rhone, Sharkplaneo, Willy T, and Kodiak Queen, as well as beautiful coral reefs, but it engenders an awareness of marine conservation.”
Mr. McCoy elaborated that he is happy by the number of industry partners and non-profit organizations who have contributed significantly to BVI Wreck Week. He added, “I am inviting everyone to come out and celebrate the BVI’s award winning majestic dive spots. Tourism is everyone’s business”.
President of the BVI Scuba Association, Kim Huish is elated by the support being received for BVI Wreck Week. “We are honored to have two amazing Ambassadors – Mr. Alton Bertie and Honorable David D. Archer, Deputy Governor. Their unwavering support has been instrumental in getting this event off the ground.
