Wild Pacific: an ocean of extraordinary discoveries

Abstract

The Pacific Ocean is unimaginably vast. The distance between its islands can be huge - literally hundreds or thousands of miles - and yet, the Pacific is home to stunning natural beauty and an amazind abundance of some of the most unique wildlife on the planet. Beyond cliched images of swaying palms and idyllic beaches, this acclaimed series from the BBC and the Discovery Channel presents the real, immense, magnificent and astonishing Wild Pacific. The high definition cameras used to film this series capture the amazing natural sights of the region and its people in stunning detail: from erupting undersea volcanoes to jeweled tropical reefs; from tiger sharks catching albatross chicks to giant crabs opening coconuts; from the Solomon islanders who fish with spider webs and kits to the Pentecost land divers who leap from 25 meter wooden scaffolds With incredible natural spectacles, dramatic footage and facinating stories, Wild Pacific will change the way you view this ocean foreever.
