To name only a few festival highlights, there will be an Ocean Plastic Action Forum, a Film Program, a Beach Clean on Bondi Beach and live music.

Senior school students are also invited to a free half-day expo at Bondi Pavilion on Thursday, 16 March. There they get the chance to meet marine scientists and course leads from institutions such as the University of Sydney.

They can also hear about study options in science, particularly marine-related and ask questions of the scientists and faculty staff. Thereby, students get the chance to explore how science helps to restore nature and support the ocean.

With their festival the organisers want to use the power of entertainment, art and science to connect people and engage them in behaviour that positively impacts the ocean and the environment.
