Aquatic adventures~with Stuthy through the Indian Ocean 2013
Since I was first introduced to the ocean as a young boy I have always loved the "underwater world". The following is a selection of some of the adventures in the Indian Ocean this year.
Seychelles adventure 2013~travels through the worlds oldest archipelago.
Researching the ancient landscape of the Seychelles archipelago I found some amazing ancient plants growing since another age. Some of these species have been growing here for 250million years. The granite islands have been separate from other parts of Gondwana for 65 million years, however the plant communities show us the connection that other continents had many years ago with this beautiful landscape.
