Our Ocean Festival celebrates our five marine protected areas, the biodiversity below the water and on our rock platforms - our marine flora, fauna and mega fauna.
Our oceans cover 80% of our planet, generates 50% of the oxygen we breathe and absorb 25% of all carbon dioxide emissions - we need to keep our oceans healthy.
