Catch of The Day! Invasive Fish Leather Makes Waves for Coral Reefs

At Everything To Sea, we’re always excited to explore innovative ways to protect our oceans and marine life. We found an article on nicenews.com which is about sustainable fish leather (edited for brevity, below). It’s made from the invasive lionfish species, and aligns with our commitment to environmental conservation and responsible travel.

As a company that values the beauty of our seas, we understand the importance of preserving coral reefs and maintaining the delicate balance of marine ecosystems. Now, we know you’re probably thinking, “But wait, aren’t you guys all about naked sailing trips?” And you’re right! But we also care a ton about what’s happening to our oceans beyond our boat decks. This clever idea of transforming an invasive fish species into an eco-friendly product is brilliant!

Come on our sea trips in The Coral Triangle – there’s a good chance to see lionfish close up, while snorkeling with us.

What the F is The Coral Triangle?

The Coral Triangle is, without question, the greatest center of biodiversity in the marine world. Even though it holds just 1.5% of the total ocean area across the globe, it houses:

76% of coral species on the planet
Nearly 50% of known marine life
Six of the world’s seven marine turtle species

The Coral Triangle is considered one of the three mega-ecological complexes on our planet, together with the Congo Basin and the Amazon Rainforest.

We stumbled on this listicle on Reef-World.org, that describes how the Coral Triangle is, well, the superlative of superlatives. It’ll probably have you looking forward to June 9th – annually designated “Coral Triangle Day”, to raise awareness about marine conservation. And to accompany our reprint of the article, we’re sharing actual photos taken by our travelers on our Everything To Sea trips. Get ready for a truly special treat…

Snorkeling in The Best Place on Earth

Sometimes we’re asked if cruises provide snorkeling options. We are EVERYTHING TO SEA, so it’d be crazy if we didn’t! Especially because we’re sailing in part of the famous Coral Triangle, dubbed “The Amazon of the Seas”. Picture a beautiful landscape under the sea, rich with marine plants, gorgeous coral, and the greatest diversity of coral reef fishes in the world.
