What is One Ocean Diving?

A foundation and source of funding for cooperative pelagic research, conservation, education, and getting you close to marine life through our daily pelagic trips. Our research focuses on the biology, physiology, human interaction, and consequences of the climate on marine species. Our devoted team of marine biologists is committed to educating the public about marine life and ecosystems.

Join us on one of our pelagic dives on Oahu's renowned North Shore and see for yourself just how amazing each marine creature is! You'll leave with a fresh appreciation for and understanding of the ocean, and maybe you'll spread the word to aid in ocean preservation.

RESEARCH

Founded for a collaborative research program gathering data for over four different current shark research studies, the One Ocean Diving Pelagic Program was adapted by internationally recognized shark and marine biologist, Ocean Ramsey to serve as a major conservation effort and to help assist with funding for ongoing studies of sharks.

What started with sharks has now grown to encompass the Honu (Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle) and Humpback whales!

EDUCATION

Our hope is to spread the word about the importance of protecting marine animals, and to encourage people globally to take action and use their voice to stand up for all these amazing species!

We seek to educate people through multiple platforms: personally through our dives, social media, giving school presentations, and working with individuals and groups internationally too support their research and conservation efforts through @oneoceanglobal

CONSERVATION

Facilitating and inspiring the connection of human beings to protect the animals within our oceans and the marine ecosystems and environment through first-hand experience. During our dives you learn about shark, sea turtle and whale biology and how it plays into their behavior, body language and human impacts on the survival of these marine species.

Check out our conservation page by clicking the "LEARN MORE" button below to get involved in local conservation efforts and learn about the threats facing sharks, sea turtles and whales, and how you can help get involved!

and YOU

One Ocean Diving would not be possible without all of you! We believe experiencing these animals first-hand helps steward a respectful relationship. It is our hope that  after learning about these animals and the threats facing them you can use your voice to help spread the word! You as an individual can make a huge difference in changing the perspectives of people and helping them better understand the importance of protecting what lies beneath the ocean's surface.
