It can be difficult to comprehend, but the ocean accounts for approximately 71 percent of our planet’s surface area. The earth’s oceans are largely responsible for the weather, air quality, and provide an abundance of natural resources. Tragically, our oceans are becoming more and more polluted. However, one woman is on a mission to show the world how beautiful our waters are in an effort to protect them.

Meet 26-year-old French Canadian Sarah Gauthier, also known as Scuba Sarah. Gauthier first developed an interest in diving when she saw a flyer at the pool while she was attending the University of Montreal. Her mother was an advanced PADI certified diver, and she thought it might be fun to travel with her and be her diving buddy.
