Our story
From Local Clean-Ups to a Global Movement: Our Journey in Ocean Conservation

Dive Clean Ocean was founded by Michael Wood, a passionate scuba diver and marine enthusiast who witnessed firsthand the growing threats to our marine environments. United by a shared love for the ocean and a commitment to its preservation, Mike established Dive Clean Ocean to tackle marine pollution, educate the public, and promote sustainable diving practices.

Our journey began with small local clean-up dives with plans to grow into a global movement, inspiring thousands of divers and marine enthusiasts to take action for the oceans. From organizing large-scale underwater clean-ups to engaging in community education, Dive Clean Ocean is dedicated to making a tangible impact on marine conservation. Our vision is a world where oceans are free from pollution, teeming with marine life, and sustained by informed and passionate stewards from all walks of life.

With every dive, with every clean-up effort, we strive to create a cleaner, healthier ocean for future generations. Our community of divers, volunteers, and supporters is at the heart of our mission, driving us to expand our efforts and reach more shores. Join us as we dive deep, clean together, and protect forever.
