Smithsonian Ocean Portal's photostream  

The Ocean Portal--launched in June 2010--is an interactive website brought to you by the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History and more than 20 collaborators.

Follow your curiosity, find inspiration, and share your experiences with others who love the sea. The Ocean is important to all life, including yours. Join us.

Check out our new groups on Flickr:

Ocean Trash & Treasures--Whether natural objects or man-made jetsam, things that wash up on shore can be fascinating. Share and browse images of interesting objects members have found along the shoreline.

Motion for the Ocean--Help us visualize what it looks like to be a good ocean steward.
