Our mission
Our mission is to protect, educate and explore the underwater world. We want to bring travelers, local communities, biologists, researchers, and environmental enthusiasts together to support each other and spread information. We focus on the issues in the marine ecosystem which are still not being properly addressed. Our vision is to slowly start replacing shark fishing for shark tourism in the areas we operate by hiring shark fisherman to work with us on our expeditions. We will invest your donations and the main part of our profits to support our education program for children and to run our shark conservation program.

About Founder
Lucia Baranová

The ocean is not just a passion to her, it's her own “little” BLUE RELIGION.
