Behind every incredible ocean moment is someone who stops, observes, and captures the magic.

Marta’s footage brings us closer to the animals she encounters, giving us a glimpse into the unforgettable experiences that inspire her work as an ocean advocate and storyteller.

From the smallest details to the biggest encounters, every moment helps tell a bigger story about why our oceans are worth protecting.

Every sway of the anemone is a small negotiation.

The clownfish dart in for shelter, the tentacles part just enough to let them through.

It's one of the ocean's quietest partnerships, and one of its most beautiful.

Who's seen this in real life, and where were you?

Dolphins are highly social and intelligent marine mammals, often living and travelling in groups.

But beyond the spectacle is something more meaningful: the opportunity to see marine life not as something distant or abstract, but as living beings sharing the same ocean.

Marta’s encounter with dozens of dolphins is a beautiful reminder of the incredible diversity of life beneath the surface.

Ocean Angel, one of our Ocean Hero's putting in the work, literally.

This weekend she took on El Poris in Arico, on Tenerife's east coast, a stretch of coastline that gets hit hard by ocean currents carrying trash from thousands of miles away (yes, potentially as far as the US, thanks to the Atlantic current).

Two hours in, four industrial bin bags of plastic and deadly fishing rope removed.

Her running total is now 9,152.80 kilos, just 848 kilos away from hitting 10,000kg. That's 526 kilos removed in the last six weeks alone.

This is what grassroots ocean action looks like. No corporate campaign, no big budget, just one person deciding a stretch of coastline mattered enough to show up for.

Whales, dolphins, turtles and sharks share these waters. Every bag removed is one less thing standing between them and a cleaner home.

Follow her journey, and if you're inspired to get involved locally, that's the whole point.

One day, future generations will look at the ocean and see the choices we made today.

Will they see coral reefs full of life?

Whales and sea turtles thriving in healthy habitats?

Clean coastlines and plastic-free seas?

Fisheries that support both people and marine ecosystems?

Or will they only hear stories about what the ocean used to look like?

The future of our oceans isn't something that belongs to another generation to solve. It is being shaped by the decisions, policies, habits, and actions we take today.

We have an opportunity to leave behind an ocean that is alive, resilient, and full of possibility.

Let's make sure the next generation inherits a future worth exploring. 🌊

This is what a living ocean looks like. 🌊

It's movement in every direction. Sharks weaving between coral. Countless organisms finding food, shelter, and space to survive.

Every reef is part of a much larger marine ecosystem, connecting species and habitats in ways we are still learning to understand.

But these ecosystems need our protection.

Climate change, pollution, overfishing, and habitat loss are putting pressure on marine environments around the world.

Conservation gives these ecosystems a chance to recover, remain resilient, and continue supporting the extraordinary diversity of life that depends on them.

The goal is to keep the ocean alive.
This is what we're working to protect.

There’s a difference between seeing marine life and experiencing it.

For Marta, swimming alongside dolphins offers a glimpse of that difference.

Being able to witness them like this is a privilege and one that can change the way we see the ocean.

Marta’s storytelling is rooted in that connection: helping people experience the wonder of marine life so that they can better understand why it is worth protecting.

Because conservation isn't only about knowing the threats.

It’s also about remembering what we are protecting.

Today, we're celebrating International Whale Shark Day. 🐋

Whale sharks are the largest fish in the world, yet they feed on some of the smallest organisms in the ocean. They can travel vast distances, crossing different marine environments as they search for food and favourable conditions.

Their journeys remind us just how connected our oceans are.

A healthy whale shark population depends on healthy seas, productive feeding grounds, and habitats that remain safe enough for these animals to complete their natural movements.

That's why protecting whale sharks means protecting more than one species. It means protecting the ecosystems they depend on and the wider ocean systems that support countless forms of marine life.

Today, let's celebrate these incredible animals by learning more about them, sharing their story, and supporting the work that helps keep our oceans thriving.

🌊 The more we understand the ocean, the more there is to protect.

Happy International Whale Shark Day! 🐋

Today, we're celebrating the world's largest fish and one of the ocean's most remarkable gentle giants.

Whale sharks can grow to enormous sizes, yet they move through the ocean with a calm, unhurried presence. Their lives are shaped by changing seasons, food availability, and the vast journeys they make through our oceans.

And while they may not be giving us actual life advice, there's something about the way they live that feels worth learning from.

Slow down.
Be gentle.
Change direction when you need to.
Find where you can thrive.
And keep moving forward.

Swipe through for 5 life lessons inspired by the whale shark.
