  • While down in Belize we found ourselves surrounded by conservationists, biologists, and all-around turtle enthusiasts!! We helped them with their efforts to protect sea turtles, and then made our way to The Great Blue Hole of Belize, the last destination on my childhood bucket list!!

    It’s something amazing to see what these scientists do for conservation and also what satellite tracking does and So happy for you for being able to check off another one from your bucket list 🙌🏼

    This is my 3rd video of your channel! I'm totally hooked. I grew up in S.W. Florida, home of black water swamps and clear ocean channels with islands in between, Ft. Myers. I've always loved the clear open waters where a person can see for greater distances than the murky black water swamps. I grew up with turtle season and counting the number of nests, marking them so people stayed away as well as placing netting to keep digging wildlife out of the nest areas. It was important to keep the nests as free and clear of raccoons and opossum to give the hatchlings the greatest chance of survival. It was important work and still is, that is if hurricane Ian didn't destroy the nesting grounds on Sanibel Island and other key islands in the area. Your channel needs promoting like crazy kiddo. Happy trails and safe travels to you

    I've watched a lot of travel vlogs, and Sam Potter's are my favorite. He is so relatable, sweet, fun, and real. None of it looks performative, it all feels so genuine, like I'm living these experiences with him. The island heart comes through strong. Love you man

This was another great episode. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into the work that goes into turtle conservation and it's always fun to see people experience bucket list locations for the first time! Glad the Blue Hole lived up to your internal hype. How much scuba diving had you done prior to that trip?

      @@CaptainPotter That's awesome and so very YOU. For close to a year I've been considering joining what looks like a cool volunteer project around marine conservation in Belize... lots of scuba involved and I'd need to get PADI certified in Belize (or at home) before the volunteer part. Might try to find a time to join the project for a week or two this winter or sometime in 2023. Watching this episode definitely makes me really want to do it!
