Oceans That Shape Africa’s Wild Shores | Oceans of Contrast | Full Documentary

Описание: The southern part of the African Continent is a dramatic landscape. Two contrasting currents, the cold Benguela on the west and south and the warm Agulhas on the east, bathe the shores.

These two contrasting oceans create one of the most diverse marine environments on Earth with abundance in life. The two marine currents not only rule the marine world but they are giant forces that shape the landscape through the climate.

Oceans of Contrast will be a journey to explore these two colossal currents that moves along the African continent. We will explore the cold and rich marine realm of the West Coast that creates a lush and abundant landscape in the oceans, but an unforgiving dry world on land. This marine world is dominated by kelp where endemic species depends on the rich nutrients from the upwelling along the coast. Seals, African penguin, Cape gannets and the Southern Right whales find refuge here to breed.

On the east side of the continent the warm, fast flowing current flows south from the Mozambique Channel. This is the intense Agulhas Current of about 100km wide and surface water reaching speeds of 2 meters per second. The sea is a semitropical paradise with coral reefs, tiger- and ragged tooth sharks, turtles and brightly coloured tropical fish. On land there is rivers and semitropical forests with mangroves.

This doccie will explore the nearly 3000km of coastline stretching from the South African border with Mozambique right around to the border of Namibia at Alexander Bay. Unique underwater and superb aerial cinematography will showcase this as a real tribute to the unique marine heritage of South and southern Africa.
