Take an Unbelievable Journey Through Some of the Planet’s Most Pristine Waters

International wildlife photographers, Peter and Beverly Pickford, will be hosted by the Two Oceans Aquarium on 30 November, where they will be showcasing their newest book Wild Ocean at a speaker evening.

The Pickfords, authors of the international bestseller Wild Land, have spent four years creating their newest project, Wild Ocean. It’s an offering that is a stunning and unforgettable portrait of some of the earth’s remaining wild marine environments and shorelines. 

Magnificent photographs reveal untouched marine habitats and dynamic coastal habitats, from South Africa’s Transkei Wild Coast and the vast tern flocks of the Seychelles to the endangered whale sharks of Australia’s Ningaloo Coast and the icy waters of Alaska and British Columbia’s southwest coast.

Experience the steamy rainforests of central America and Cuba’s protected Jardines de la Reina. Witness the legendary diversity of the Galápagos Islands, the deep-water reefs of the South Pacific’s Coral Triangle, the polar bear realms of the Arctic, and the penguins, seals and whales of South Georgia Island and Antarctica.

On the night, Peter and Beverly will set the stage for their collection of photographs by drawing on the accompanying text featured in the book. Their words detail their unbelievable journey through some of the planet’s most pristine waters, while issuing a vital call to action: that we must all play a part in protecting the wild ocean for the sake of its future – and ours.

Don’t miss your chance to step into their world with the backdrop of the Two Oceans Aquarium’s exhibits and their marine inhabitants.
