Sea Turtles are critical to the biodiversity of the Ocean and are major contributors to healthy ecosystems. Among their many benefactions, Sea Turtles help the Coral Reef ecosystem remain productive and healthy and they also play an important role in maintaining the food web balance. Unfortunately, as Sea Turtle numbers decline, so does the important effect they have on our Ocean ecosystems.We are now witnessing significant change in our Oceans due to a large and continuing reduction in the numbers of Sea Turtles worldwide. Let us gıve these beautıful creatures the love and protectıon they need!

Take a deep breath and imagine sitting beside the Ocean, a sugar-sand beach with crystalline waters that feel like a warm bath to the touch. Sit. Hear the water lap against the shore. Feel the breeze. Take it all in. Odds are you're feeling calmer already. That's because, according to science, being around water helps our mental health in myriad ways, and may be the key to lasting happiness!

Raja Ampat is a magical place, where nature takes

Raja Ampat is a magical place, where nature takes the spotlight. It is also home to many wonderful people who are worth taking the time to meet. The people of Raja Ampat, generaly traditional fishermen, are acutely aware of the value of their environment and the need to preserve it to support their way of life. Villages in the islands have always had a traditional system of resource preservation in place. Local communities are keen to secure an economic future based on eco-tourism rather than the unsustainable exploitation of their environment

Freediving is a natural ability that all humans ha

Freediving is a natural ability that all humans have, but only a few develop. On our BLUEtiful planet covered mostly by water, it is surprising that only a small minority enjoy the blissful experience of freediving. Good news is it's never too late to learn and reconnect with our innate powers of being one with the ocean!

Here’s Dutch Tammo Wildschut @tammo.w hitting the waves! He supports OceanLove: “Because of its focus on the endless beauty and opportunities of the ocean”. Tammo is also the co-founder of SEA Water. He designed a system that can turn salty seawater into drinkable sweet water, driven by solar energy. It might turn into a huge life saving game changer for countries with lots of sun but low quality drinking water!

We are super happy and proud to have Wojciech Dopi

We are super happy and proud to have Wojciech Dopierala @woj.dop among our beautiful team of OceanLove photographers! Combining his love for photography with his passion for freediving, Wojciech can easily dive with one breath to 60 meters deep and shoot pictures of animals and humans together, because he believes this way people can more easily relate to what they see. “If it’s only a beautiful animal in the ocean some people might think it’s another world, unreachable, far away. While when they see a fellow human with that animal they can more easily see themself connecting with that beauty in real life.”

Protection follows connection and that’s also why Wojciech supports OceanLove:

“You can tell a 1000 words, but as soon as people discover themselves they absolutely will pay attention!”

Raja Ampat archipelago, located on the western tip

Raja Ampat archipelago, located on the western tip of Papua in Indonesia, has one of the richest marine biodiversity sites in the world. 90% of the marine life that lives in these waters lives just four metres below the surface, so it's an ideal location for swimmers and divers to explore 💙

Have you heard of the GREAT BLUE Wall? 😍

The Great Blue Wall initiative was launched in November 2022, where 10 countries in the western Indian ocean are banding together to create a network of marine conservation areas called the Great Blue Wall!

Here are the 10 nations: Comoros, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, Tanzania and France.

This conservation effort will focus on protecting coral reefs, mangroves and seagrass meadows; supporting a global goal to protect 30 per cent of the oceans by 2030!

Revolutionary new Swiss 'water battery' to be one

Revolutionary new Swiss 'water battery' to be one of Europe's main renewable sources of energy! A water battery or pumped storage power plant is a type of hydroelectric energy storage. Hydro batteries are especially useful for storing excess energy produced by intermittent power sources such as wind and solar!
We hope all countries follow the lead an invest in more and more renewable sources of energy!

From Western Cape And Nelson Mandela Bay To Paris

From Western Cape And Nelson Mandela Bay To Paris And Brussels, South African Civil Society Is Increasing The Pressure Against Total’s Destruction Of Our Oceans! 💥

@the_green_connection1 The Green Connection, small-scale fishers and activists went to France in a joint bid with Bloom for the #OceanTotalDestruction campaign, to stop TotalEnergies’ oil and gas expansion in South Africa.
👏👏👏👏
They engaged with European Parliament (Brussels) with Goldman Prize Winners and Members of the National Assembly (Paris), environmental and civil society organizations and French Ministries to provide awareness about the campaign and request help to stop the French company @totalenergies from exploring offshore oil and gas in South African waters.

Shout out to these brave and dedicated protesters who voice the true needs of our planet and oceans! 👏😍💕🌎 Let's all join their efforts and sign the petition!!
