Pristine Seas: Bringing the Ocean Back

Experience the beauty and power of ocean conservation through breathtaking photography and film.

Pristine Seas: Bringing the Ocean Back is a must-see National Geographic international exhibition that explores the world’s most remote and unspoiled marine ecosystems. Featuring stunning ocean photography, epic documentary video, and inspiring stories, this exhibition takes visitors on a journey from the vibrant coral reefs of the Southern Line Islands to the majestic icebergs of the Antarctic Peninsula. 

The exhibition highlights the National Geographic Pristine Seas project, which has conducted 44 global expeditions and helped create 27 marine protected areas, covering over 6.5 million square kilometres of ocean – more than twice the size of India.

Pristine Seas works alongside Indigenous Peoples, local communities, and governments to safeguard and restore our ocean. Visitors will learn about the importance of marine conservation, and how protecting 30% of our oceans by 2030 can restore marine life, fight climate change, and support coastal communities.
