Welcome to Ocean Born
We are a non-profit organisation building planet-friendly, purpose-driven brands that fund the protection and restoration of marine and freshwater ecosystems. Since 2021, we have contributed almost €500,000 in donations to 35 initiatives supporting a healthier blue planet. We founded Ocean Beer to make it easy for consumers to protect the planet.

“ The ocean is our life support system — and it’s in danger. But it can recover, and even thrive beyond anything anyone alive has ever seen — if we just offer it the chance. ”
~ Sir David Attenborough
Ocean Restoration is Severely Underfunded
Scientists estimate that it will take $175 billion a year to restore the ocean back to health. Right now, 98% of this funding is missing — making Life Below Water the most neglected of all United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
So, we could sit back, cross our fingers, and hope for the best. Or… we could do things differently. We could roll up our sleeves and help unlock new funding to protect our blue planet: Welcome to Ocean Born.
