Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ocean Futures Society Program


Founded in 1999 by Jean-Michel Cousteau, environmental advocate and son of the legendary Jacques Cousteau, the mission of the Ocean Futures Society is to explore our global oceans, inspiring and educating people throughout the world to act responsibly for their protection, documenting the critical connection between humanity and nature, and celebrating the ocean’s vital importance to the survival of all life on our planet.


For more than 60 years, Jean-Michel Cousteau, his father, and family have been part of the greatest exploration of the ocean in all of history. Mr. Cousteau will join us on the July 11, 2012, sailing to the Society Islands & Tuamotus, the November 20, 2012, sailing to Fiji, Tonga, Cook & Society Islands, and the December 1, 2012, sailing to the Marquesas, Tuamotus & Society Islands. As our special guest, he will offer a series of lectures with videos of his work in the world’s oceans, as well as accompany several dives from the ship.


Ambassadors of the Environment Youth Program Created by explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau and his Ocean Futures Society, Ambassadors of the Environment is a unique, groundbreaking program that introduces young travelers to the extraordinary natural wonders of French Polynesia through direct, hands-on, interactive learning. Young Ambassadors (ages 9-17) will explore coral reefs, hike rainforest trails, and visit marae (ancient Polynesian temples). Tey’ll learn how black pearls and vanilla are cultivated, how volcanic islands become coral atolls, how to paddle an outrigger canoe, and the importance of maintaining the ocean’s marine and island ecosystems. Parents have an option to join children on eco-excursions and other activities aboard and ashore.


Tis program is available on all cruises from June through August and on select holiday cruises for a nominal fee of $299 per child.
