Project AWARE stands for Aquatic World Awareness and Responsibility. It is a non-profit organization dedicated to conserving underwater environments through education, advocacy and action.

Project AWARE combats challenges facing aquatic resources in 175 countries with direct support from divers and water enthusiasts. The reefs around the globe are under constant threat and they need our help. Whether its pollution, overfishing, reef destruction or shark finning, all problems are manmade and our attitude needs to change on a global scale in order to protect the environment we love so dearly.

B&J has always wanted to make a difference. Over the last 30 years we’ve been at the forefront of conservation in Tioman. We maintain our healthy coral by organizing regular environmental events such as clean-up days, COT (Crown Of Thorns) collections and more.

B&J has been awarded several times by PADI as a “Project AWARE Environmental Achievement Award Winner” and has won the prestigious PADI Asia Environmental Aware in 2008. B&J is also a “Go-Eco Operator”, a “Longitude 181 Ambassador”, and a “Top 10 Member” of Green Fins promoting environmentally safe diving with a strict no glove and no touch policy.

We need you to come and participate in those events!
