Humpback whales and other ocean giants may soon be able to breed peacefully in the warm seas off Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula after the announcement of a Hope Spot by Mission Blue.

The ocean conservation organisation, in partnership with watchmaker Rolex through its Perpetual Planet initiative, endeavours to explore, restore and safeguard the world’s oceans. This has been ongoing since 2014.
