We just launched our one-year-in-the-making venture Oceans to the world.

Together with the world's diving community, Oceans is set to map the teeming oceanic life, vivid landscapes and fragile underwater environment, making it available for everyone to explore.

Oceans is all about co-creation. We are building a community for divers and explorers worldwide, allowing them to share and discover dive sites and observations across the world’s oceans. Built with the user in focus, Oceans makes it easier than ever to check-in diving adventures and interact with divers around the globe.

Are you a diver or explorer? Join us on oceans.io!

fascinating idea! I assume you have an interest in diving and ocean exploration yourself. Are there existing products catering to this niche? Is this a for-profit venture?


Thanks! Yes, long-time divers. The app is free, let's call it a for-benefit venture :) /J
