OCEAN SCHOOL

OCEAN EXPERTS. FUTURE LEADERS.

Who is the OCEAN SCHOOL?

The OCEAN SCHOOL is a nature-based educational program in Cape Town, South Africa, designed for young adults aged sixteen to eighteen to improve their employability and entrepreneurship skills within the green and blue economies. 

Operated by the non-profit organization Mon Coeur, it provides practical training in ocean-based skills—such as swimming, diving, and marine ecology—alongside professional development in business management and eco-tourism guiding. 

The program serves as a transformative learning pathway that fosters environmental stewardship and opens up sustainable career opportunities in conservation and tourism for youth from under-resourced communities.
