San Pedro Joins Oceana’s Hand Across the Sand Event

On Saturday, May 18, 2018, Oceana was in charge of organizing the Hands Across the Sand event in Belize and it was successfully held in all the districts around the country including San Pedro, Dangriga, Corozal, Punta Gorda, Belmopan, Orange Walk, San Ignacio, Caye Caulker, Belize City and Placencia.

The event had participants holding hands by the shore at the San Pedro Central Park as a sign of solidarity against offshore oil drilling and sending the message to government that they do not support any of it, as it will jeopardize one of the country’s most important natural resources and industries. Oceana Belize continues to be a strong advocate and a voice for the people of Belize to send this strong message against offshore oil drilling in the country.
