Shark populations are in crisis—declining by an astonishing 71% over the past 50 years. At Mike’s Dive Store, we’re driven by more than adventure—we’re driven by conservation. That’s why we’re thrilled to spotlight a cause that makes waves: Suunto’s partnership with Project Hiu, aimed at safeguarding sharks and uplifting coastal communities in Indonesia.
From June through December 2025, every purchase of the glowing “Green Glow” strap ensures that €10 goes directly to Project Hiu. Just one shark-fishing boat kept off the water for a month can protect up to 100 sharks.
Empowering Change Through Empathy, Not Blame
Founded by marine advocate Madison Stewart, lovingly known as “Shark Girl,” Project Hiu isn’t about finger-pointing—it’s about transformation. By offering ex-fishermen eco-tourism opportunities and educational programs, the initiative converts their role from predator into protector, building a sustainable future for both people and the ocean.
This model resonates deeply with our ethos at Mike’s Dive Store. Conservation doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in collaboration, empathy, and real, local-level impact.
The Green Glow Strap: Function Meets Purpose
More than a statement piece, the Green Glow strap is engineered for divers:
- Made of premium quick-release silicone, designed for both durability and comfort underwater
- Black-speckled turquoise aesthetic with a glow-in-the-dark finish—stylish and night dive-ready
- Built for the Suunto Ocean dive computer, and compatible with all Suunto sports watches featuring 22 mm straps
Wear it with pride - every strap sold supports a movement.
