Barbadians who depend on the sea egg season for a boost in their income may be disappointed this year as a search of the reefs around the island have revealed an absence of the sea urchin. Those looking forward to the tasty treat, will also have a longer wait.In fact, investigating divers predict that the indefinite ban on sea egg harvesting may not be lifted any time soon, since the reefs are devoid of the delicacy.Though Government has made no formal announcement on the ban, the divers say the low sea egg population suggests that it would not be wise to open up for the traditional season in the latter part of the year.
