Playa-Zahara Ship Details and Seafarer Feedback

Authorities have made a shocking find of tons of shark carcasses, including blue sharks and makos, on the vessel 'Playa Zahara' in the picturesque waters of French Polynesia. In response to this alarming incident, a formal complaint has been lodged against the ship's captain by the federation of environmental protection associations, which emphasizes the need for stricter compliance with conservation laws to safeguard this region as a sanctuary for vulnerable marine species. The ship was reportedly set to transfer its controversial cargo to another Spanish vessel from the same company on November 2, 2021, aiming for a swift exit from French Polynesia. The transport of sharks, whether alive or deceased, is categorically forbidden in French Polynesia under article Lp. 2211-3 of the environment code.
