Every journey with Seas4Life gives back in impact and insight through our 70-30 model. 🦀
But it’s not just about funding.
Our trips are built to enrich, giving guests a deeper understanding of the ecosystems they visit and the people working to protect them. This is often through hands-on citizen science activities like turtle identification, reef monitoring, or mangrove planting.🌱
We believe travel should be regenerative and build real connections between travellers, communities, and the ocean. 🌍
This week, we are so excited to be at the UN Ocean Conference in Nice — a global gathering that couldn’t come at a more critical time for our ocean.
The conference brings together world leaders, scientists, NGOs, and private sector voices to accelerate real, lasting action for marine health. This year’s theme, ‘Catalysing Action for Our Ocean and Climate’, speaks directly to our mission.
As a purpose-driven travel company, Seas4Life designs immersive experiences that directly support marine conservation across the Western Indian Ocean. From community-led turtle projects to coral restoration and seagrass protection, we believe travel can be a force for good.
We’re currently aligned with four of the ten UN Ocean Action Panels — and we’re just getting started.
🌍 70% of our profits go to conservation

Happy 99th birthday to Sir David Attenborough!
Today marks the release of his latest film, Ocean—a moving reminder of the ocean’s importance to all life on Earth.
At Seas4Life, this message hits home. We’ve dedicated our work to the Western Indian Ocean—one of the most biodiverse but often overlooked marine regions on the planet.
Through science-informed travel, we help people reconnect with the sea and support conservation efforts where they’re needed most.
We’re exploring the idea of a community screening and live Q&A with our founder, Julie—watch this space!

There’s endless wonder to uncover across the Western Indian Ocean.
Our handcrafted itineraries connect you to this wild region at its most vibrant — from savanna to sea.
Each journey is guided by experts, designed with purpose, and supports the conservation of the places we explore.
We’re thrilled to see two of our own focus areas, Mombasa and Seychelles, recognised as global leaders in coastal resilience.
It reflects what we witness on the ground every day: local innovation, community collaboration, and a growing blue consciousness driving real change.
In both regions, we connect guests with the people and projects working to protect these marine ecosystems, helping to support the Blue Economy and expand ocean literacy.

Seas4Life Safaris was born from founder Julie Church’s deep passion for adventure, the oceans, sustainable living, East Africa and its wild spaces. Our belief is that by sharing our knowledge, experience and connections, through world class, bespoke, tailor made safaris
and technical advice, we can create a greater appreciation and understanding of our blue planet.
Our focus is to reveal the wonders of our world by exploring the seas, getting close to our ocean creatures, connecting with experts, discovering the linkages between human and marine ecosystems, experiencing the wilderness and freedom of wide open spaces and providing technical advice on sustainability to organizations in a position to make a positive impact in the world.
Our motivation is for you to discover the real beauty of our beaches, sea-grass beds, mangroves, coral reefs and open oceans; watch and understand the wonders of the reef fish and their coral colonies, or come face to face with dolphins, dugong, manta rays, sea turtles, sharks and whales. Whether swimming, scuba diving, fishing, sailing, or just relaxing, our aim is for you to leave mesmerised by the sea. As Jacques Cousteau said, “Once the sea casts its spell, it holds you in its net of wonder forever.”
We revel in showing you lesser-known destinations in Africa’s seas and waterways, designing extraordinary safaris and making your next beach holiday inspirational and unforgettable. Each safari is customized to our client’s brief—designed with safety and comfort as top priorities.
We also focus on sustainable solutions. We propose innovative solutions tailored to marine protected areas, reducing our plastic footprint and sustainable social enterprises, particularly in Africa. We do this because we care and have the experience of being pioneers in social enterprise, ourselves. We have explored many marine protected areas and understand the issues surrounding the communities that rely on them.
In the end, we have developed an experiential ocean safari company that works in harmony with Mother Nature’s greatest gifts—bringing new meaning to the idea of eco-driven, luxury travel.
