Films about the ocean will be making a splash at Weymouth Pavilion on Friday, October 1 from 7.30pm.

The Ocean Film Festival is returning to the theatre with a brand-new collection of ocean-themed films from below and above the surface.

The short films feature wild seafaring voyages, extreme watersports and marine conservation from the least explored depths of the planet.

Tour director Nell Teasdale said: “Witness intrepid human-powered challenges, mind-boggling marine life and incredible ocean cinematography, without getting your feet wet!”

The Ocean Film Festival originated in Australia, with the aim of inspiring people to explore, respect, enjoy and protect the oceans.
