Underwater Gardens is a business project that combines conservation, science, and education to address a global environmental crisis that has already reached its limit.
At the forefront is Marc García-Durán, an urban planner and diver, convinced that the relationship between humans and the sea needs a profound cultural change. For him, oceans are living and fragile systems, not infinite reserves at the service of human activity.
That’s why Underwater Gardens also engages the public through regenerative tourism, involving visitors in conservation processes and scientific outreach. Regeneration, García-Durán argues, is not just a technique, but a different way of inhabiting the planet. “No one protects what they do not understand,” summarizes the founder.
