About Wild Oceans: A Journey into the Earth's Last Wild Coasts by Peter and Beverley Pickford

Striking images taken on location in ten of the world's wildest and most pristine marine and coastal environments by acclaimed wildlife photographers Peter and Beverly Pickford.

Following in the footsteps of their international bestseller Wild Land: A Journey into the Earth's Last Wilds, Peter and Beverly Pickford document the earth's remaining wild oceans and their adjacent coastlines in startling and indelible photographs. The result of four years of research, travel, and picture taking, this book charts these untamed and rare environments across the world.

In dynamic coastal habitats where wild oceans meet land more than 90 percent of marine life occurs, and most of the terrestrial life that thrives along the shore is also sustained by the ocean. It is an intricate and complex web of magnificent natural life.

An epic study of some of our planet’s most untouched marine habitats, this remarkable book includes the wild coast of South Africa's Transkei on the Indian Ocean; the archaic giant tortoises of the Seychelles and the endangered whale sharks of Australia’s Ningaloo Coast; the icy waters of Alaska and British Columbia's south-west coast; the steamy coastal rainforests of central America and Cuba's protected Jardines de la Reina with its 4,000-year-old corals; the legendary diversity of the Galapagos Islands where its strong, cold currents are home to an abundance of marine and bird life; the deep-­water reefs and rich ecosystems of the South Pacific's Coral Triangle; and the Polar Oceans including the penguin, seal, and seabird colonies of South Georgia Island and the Antarctic Zone, and the polar bears that hunt the shores of the Arctic.

The result is a stunning and unforgettable portrait of the remaining wild oceans and their shorelines from the acclaimed photographic team.
