Event Details
Formentera is known for its beaches with clear and transparent waters and fine white sand that give rise to its turquoise and blue hues. The quality of its waters is due to the presence of the POSIDONIA OCEANICA, a marine plant that offers large amounts of oxygen and organic matter and contributes to the biodiversity of plant and animal species.
The Posidonia meadows form the most important marine ecosystems of the Mediterranean, harboring the maximum diversity of species. In addition, they play a fundamental role in the conservation of coastal ecosystems as the Posidonia grasslands slow the erosion of beaches, are the main source of sandy sediment in the Balearic Islands and contribute to maintain the transparency of coastal waters.The Posidonia meadows form the most important marine ecosystems of the Mediterranean, harboring the maximum diversity of species.
