Announcing Dive of the Year 2017
Over the last 12 months, we have been highlighting some stunning #DiveoftheWeek logs in the Oceans app and on social media, reaching over 40,000 ocean champions around the globe. It’s now time to announce the #DiveoftheYear 2017!
And here’s the winner, presented by Fabien Cousteau, grandson of ocean exploration pioneer Jacques Cousteau, TED speaker, founder of Ocean Learning Center and a well–known voice to the oceans:
“The whale shark is the largest fish in the ocean, yet we still know very little about them. Xaal’s photo captures the grace and peaceful nature of this beautiful and endangered species. Congrats Xaal, you are the winner of the Dive of the Year awards 2017!”
— Fabien Cousteau
