The Golf Balls That Dissolve in Water and Feed Fish Too

Golf balls may not seem like a major environmental concern — until you learn that more than a billion of them are lost each year in the U.S. alone. But a Spanish company is swinging for change with a golf ball that vanishes in water and actually helps marine life.

Albus Golf’s Ecobioball is a biodegradable, single-use ball made from safe, non-toxic materials that fully dissolve within 48 hours of water contact. Once the outer layer dissolves, it releases a dense core of natural fish food, offering a surprising benefit to local ecosystems. The idea was sparked by a simple thought: what if a lost golf ball could give something back instead of polluting waterways?

While they aren’t designed for competitive play, the balls are ideal for practice sessions at sea, on cruise decks, or at beachfront resorts. They travel a bit shorter than regular golf balls, but for casual golfers, that’s a small trade-off for eco-friendly fun. Albus Golf hopes their design inspires more sustainable sports solutions — no matter where you tee off.
