Every time we swim, surf, or snorkel, we leave a footprint behind, even when we can’t see it. Over 14,000 tons of sunscreen enter our oceans each year, many of them containing ingredients that harm marine life and damage coral reefs, some of the most vital ecosystems on Earth. But here’s what many don’t realise: The ocean produces more than half of the oxygen we breathe. It regulates our climate, absorbs carbon dioxide, and sustains life—both above and below the surface.
Yet it’s under threat.
The Hidden Harm of Conventional Sunscreens… Chemical sunscreens containing oxybenzone, octinoxate, and parabens are known to: Cause coral bleaching, disrupt marine reproduction, Harm fish, sea urchins, and dolphins and contribute to long-term reef degradation
Coral reefs, though covering less than 1% of the ocean floor, support 25% of all marine species. They’re essential to the health of the ocean and by extension, to the air we breathe.
The Ocean Freedom Difference
We developed Ocean Freedom with a clear goal: Protect your skin & Protect our oceans. Our mineral sunscreens use non-nano Zinc Oxide, a safe, effective UV blocker that sits on the skin and doesn’t harm marine ecosystems.
Whether you’re paddling out, hiking a mountain, or packing for your kids’ school sports day Ocean Freedom has you (and the planet) covered.
