OUR Story

Ocean Mimic started back in 2018 as a beach clean up movement and sustainable swimwear brand. Born out of a wish to end plastic pollution through a galvanised community of water women.

Today Ocean Mimic has left the swimwear behind and transformed into a platform with one single aim – to protect our oceans. To educate, inspire and unite the ocean community and amplify ocean voices.

If you are trying to make the oceans a better place then please get in touch.

We amplify ocean voices. 

Our TEAM

Emma
Founder

Emma founded Ocean Mimic in 2018 as a scuba diver who wanted to make a difference.  Creativity, passion and optimism has brought Ocean Mimic to where it is today.

Nothing would have been possible without the help of our team, volunteers and the entire Ocean Mimic community.
