🦀 It all started with a horseshoe crab on a Long Island beach.

That moment of wonder launched - goalkeeper - onto a lifetime of curiosity about what lives beneath the waves.

⚽️ For this incredible football player, the ocean isn’t an escape - it’s a reset. A chance to be reminded of how extraordinary this blue planet of ours really is.

🌊 This is why she dives. This is why she advocates. This is why we’re so lucky to have her as an ambassador of Ocean Rising.

Tessa is a phenomenal ocean advocate and one of Britain’s leading animal sculptors.

👏 Her art has been displayed all around! Including the iconic and the - even for the late Queen Elizabeth II.

🌊 For the last few years, she’s turned her attention to the sea, and to s***m whales, which she sculpts from discarded ghost nets.

💬 “As an Ocean Rising ambassador I hope my work can help more people to notice, to care, and to act for the ocean.”

So do we, Tessa. Welcome to the family ✨

Meet our newest Ocean Rising Ambassador: 🙌

⛵Lisa is a record-breaking solo sailor, author and explorer. She’s circumnavigated Antarctica alone, and is now preparing a new voyage into the Arctic.

Yet what sets her apart isn’t just the extreme nature of her voyages - it’s the way she tells them. Her amazing ability to turn these solo ocean journeys into stories of true courage and deep care for the planet.

🩵 Though her book, film and live talks, Lisa invites new audiences into the emotional reality of life on the water: the fear, the awe, and the deep ocean connection underneath it all.

As an Ambassador, she’ll be helping us explore how combining adventure, science and culture can help reimagine our relationship with the sea.

Welcome onboard, Lisa! ⚓

Introducing our newest Ocean Rising Ambassador: Federica Pellegrini 🙌

🏊 She’s spent her whole life moving through water, breaking world records, winning Olympic gold, and inspiring millions. But for Federica, the relationship with water has always been about more than sport. It’s personal. It pulls her back.

Now, joins Ocean Rising to help bring the ocean into new cultural conversations and reach audiences who’ve never thought of themselves as ocean people...yet!

💙 Welcome to the Ocean Rising community, Federica.

🇮🇹 Presentiamo la nostra nuova Ambassador di Ocean Rising: Federica Pellegrini 🙌

🏊 Ha trascorso tutta la sua vita nell’acqua - battendo record mondiali, vincendo l’oro olimpico e ispirando milioni di persone. Ma per Federica, il rapporto con l’acqua è sempre stato qualcosa di più dello sport. È personale. La richiama sempre.

Ora, si unisce a Ocean Rising per portare l’oceano in nuovi spazi culturali e raggiungere chi non si è ancora mai sentito parte di questo mondo.

💙 Benvenuta nella comunità di Ocean Rising, Federica!

🙌 What an evening!

Our very own recently attended ’s show at the - and she’s still thinking about it.

At one point, the whole hall went dark. Whale sounds filled the room.

Then came the audience interaction...

🌊5,000 people were invited to be the wave, sending a ripple of movement around one of the world’s most legendary venues.

This is exactly what we believe at Ocean Rising. That the ocean doesn’t need a lecture to be felt. It needs a shared moment of awe. An original instigator. a packed room, and suddenly strangers can be experiencing their connection to the blue, together.

Thank you for this night to remember ✨

The Ocean Rising Alliance is full of inspiring folks, so we decided to start a series featuring them.

Today we’re starting with the one and only !

🎹 She’s a classical piano prodigy, scuba diver, freediver, actress, AND ocean activist who personifies sea creatures in a theatrical extravaganza. So of course we’re fans.

Em’s range is wild. Someone who can perform with Lang Lang at 13, writes original musicals, and somehow makes conservation wildly entertaining. She even hosted a show with the Treaty to celebrate it hitting 60 ratifications!

🧜‍♀️And she isn’t just singing about the ocean - she’s in it. As a Beach Captain for Heal the Bay, an Ambassador for WHALEFALL, and a certified diver who actually hangs out with the creatures she performs as, she’s constantly putting her fins where her mic is.

We’re beyond proud to have this absolute force of nature in our alliance.

Catch her next show via the link in bio.

🥁Ever heard an ocean drum?

This wondrous instrument captures the sound of waves in your hands!

Crafted by French composer Olivier Messiaen in 1972, it was inspired by Native American water drums and works by filling two stretched canvases with tiny beads or metal balls.

🌊 Just tilt it gently, and woosh. Suddenly you’ve got ocean waves rolling across a shore.

At first, Messiaen was just trying to bring the sound of waves to an orchestral piece of his. But the instrument has since become so popular that you can find it everywhere from meditation sessions to movie sets.

We love how tangibly this one object connects art and ocean.
