A Sargassum Shrimp
Happy World Oceans Day from the Nonsuch Expeditions base in the Sargasso Sea!
Bermuda, as the only landmass in the Sargasso Sea, was historically and continues to be the perfect location from which to launch and host Expeditions. These include the original Beebe Dives, decades of scientific research and more recent filming with National Geographic and BBC Natural History.
This is the first of a series of Sargasso themed biodiversity portraits being produced by Nonsuch Expeditions Team Leader Jean-Pierre Rouja in partnership with the the Sargasso Sea Commission.
J-P was recently named as Honorary Ambassador to the Sargasso Sea Commission (along with Dr. Sylvia Earle, David Doubilet & other renowned Conservationists), for his ongoing efforts to document and protect the Sargasso Sea.
As part of its core mission the Nonsuch Expeditions continues to showcase and protect the biodiversity found in Bermuda, its surrounding waters and the Sargasso Sea.
These ongoing expedtions are being facilitated by a vessel provided by the SeaKeepers Society.
