TL;DR
In early July, a wide band of floating trash was reported near shore around SeA Life and Megasaray in Kundu, but the sea cleared by the next day and beach staff were seen removing debris. There was also a one-off lifeguard evacuation after a reported shark sighting.
On July 7, travelers said the trash seen near shore on July 5 in Kundu was gone by the following day. Beach staff were reportedly cleaning and pulling debris from the water, while the beach itself stayed clean.
On July 4, travelers reported a large band of debris along the shoreline near SeA Life and Megasaray, including cut plastic and sea grass. Around the same time, a lifeguard cleared the water once after a reported shark sighting.
Another July 4 report noted that sea conditions could change within a day: the water was clean one day and full of debris the next. Travelers speculated that boats or yachts might be dumping waste, though this was not confirmed.
