Ocean Oasis is a fascinating journey into
the bountiful seas and pristine deserts of two remarkably different,
but inextricably linked worlds - Mexico’s Sea of Cortés and the Baja
California desert. What powerful geologic forces collided to carve out
this unique region? What drives the strong currents that make this ocean
so unusually rich in nutrients? How does life thrive in a seemingly
barren landscape? Ocean Oasis mesmerizes us with revealing and memorable
scenes that explore these mysteries. Glide side-by-side with a graceful
giant manta ray as it arches and swoops through water, sparkling under
the hot Baja California sun. Witness the pageant of migrating whales,
the elaborate tango of courting terns, the battles of lumbering elephant
seals. Fly over sweeping vistas of snow-capped mountains, vast deserts,
palm oases, and mangrove swamps — then plunge into astonishing underwater
sequences of rarely seen marine life. Ocean Oasis is both visually stunning
and provocative, compelling in its message that this little-known region
is a treasure worth preserving.
