“The ocean has always cast a spell on me, and from my first breath underwater my life changed. Experiencing the fascinating creatures (both great and small) and the interplay of the entire ecosystem has made me reflect a lot on my life and has turned everything upside down. Especially in terms of sustainable living, nature-loving ideals, and the meaning of my professional future. One of my most amazing experiences was in Komodo National Park, where we witnessed and Oceanic Manta mating ritual, which is hardly seen there. It was the experience of a lifetime, and Komodo National Park remains one of my all time favorite places to dive. The biodiversity is incredible: you find so many macro wonders especially during the night dives that you can hardly keep up. And, of course, Komodo has a special place in my heart because of my beloved manta rays. It’s where my ocean conservation project got started and is still firmly rooted there.” – Tim Noack (@timbocean) Environmental activist, underwater photographer, and founder of @mantahari, Tim Noack continues to spearhead sustainable strategies to protect the oceans he loves.
