Sometimes finding the perfect gift can be a daunting task. This is especially true during the holiday season. Why not treat your loved ones with a gift that keeps on giving and contributes to protecting what you love: the ocean?

From eco-clothing to Project AWARE courses for divers and non-divers alike, there is a full range of gifts you can make to spread the ocean love and make this year’s holiday season a special occasion to share your passion for ocean conservation with friends and family.

6 Ways to Make Gifts that Keep on Giving to the Ocean

  1. Pick a non-plastic gift. Really, is plastic the way to say “Thanks” this holiday season?
  2. Share your love for the ocean and give the gift of exploration and happiness. It doesn’t come from the things you own, it comes from things you do and the people who share your adventures with. A try dive can make a very special life-changing gift and encourage someone to become an ambassador for the ocean.
  3. Make a gift that will turn your loved ones into advocates for the ocean with an AWARE specialty course. From Fish Identification to Shark Conservation Diver, Project AWARE to Dive Against Debris® specialties, there is a course for everyone, and some AWARE specialty courses can be taken from the comfort of your sofa.
  4. Project AWARE eco-clothing and plastic-free accessories also make the perfect gift for divers and non-divers alike who wish to show that they support a worthy cause. Don't forget to add a donation to Project AWARE to your shopping cart.

  6. Make your online shopping count for ocean conservation - Shop through Amazon Smile 
    Shopping through AmazonSmile is one of the simplest ways for you to support Project AWARE every time you shop, at no cost to you. You’ll find the exact same items and prices with the added bonus that Amazon donates a portion of the purchase price to Project AWARE. For UK shoppers, check out Give as You Live. With over 4,400 participating UK stores, from clothing to gifts, you can raise hundreds of pounds from all your online purchases this Holiday season.

And if buying or receiving gifts is not your thing, making a donation in the name of a loved one to his/her favorite charity is a great way to make a gift that keeps on giving!

By making gifts that keep on giving to the ocean, your support enables Project AWARE to continue its vital work - on many fronts - to protect and conserve the ocean and its inhabitants.

From all of us at Project AWARE, a very Happy Holiday Season!
