Explorers Photography dives into the hidden world of Southern California’s underwater kelp forests. Framed by Jacques Cousteau’s legacy, the film reveals how kelp shapes one of Earth’s most dynamic ecosystems. From the nesting rituals of the Garibaldi to the slow return of the Giant Black Sea Bass, each scene captures the delicate balance of life beneath the surface. A poetic and powerful look at what happens when we protect the ocean — and what returns when we do.
