I am going to walk for 24 hours nonstop
around a tropical island because…
the ocean urgently needs our help!
we cannot take the ocean for granted.
without the ocean Earth cannot survive.
I want to inspire you to protect the ocean.
I truly believe we can change.
Please join me on 6 June 2021 for
The Ocean Walk.
💙, Renee

What is The Ocean Walk?
- A 24 hour nonstop walk around the small island I call home
- An opportunity for you to learn about ocean issues and how to help
- My plea to you, to take action and encourage others to do the same
Why do I walk for 24 hours?
- To get your attention
- To share my passion for the ocean
- To inspire you to make real changes
- Drastic times call for drastic measures
- Why 24? I don’t think I can walk for 48!
The Ocean Walk 2021 is over.
Watch how it happened and hear from Renee.
