The global Expedition is kicking off with our own purpose modified vessel, the MV Argo. This is the largest marine conservation effort ever attempted to protect the world's ocean, starting in the Pacific.

Life on Earth wouldn't exist without healthy oceans. Even in the year 2023, there's still plenty of places out there that have yet to be explored. So the ability to have a dedicated vessel going to these most remote places on Earth, working with local communities and trying to support local conservation efforts, is a dream come true. Thank you.

Since 2008, the operating system has conducted 38 Expeditions and helped create 26 Marine reserves around the world.

Protecting an area bigger than the Amazon rainforest. Now, with a global Expedition, Pristencies will spend five years aboard our ship, the Argo, using groundbreaking Science and Technology to study the ocean from the surface to the deep. All with the goal of increasing protections for our ocean and continuing vital work with our local partners and stakeholders, working toward the common goal of ensuring a healthy ocean for generations to come.

But even the most ambitious conservation expedition of our times must begin with a single dive.

We are at Flint Island, first dive of the trip. Pretty excited! Just add water and we're good to go. Are we?

Understand? One, two, three, go!
