Ocean ELDER

Joseph Omar started fishing when he was 14 years old and has been learning about the ocean ever since. While he doesn’t claim to be an expert, through his years as a professional fisherman, he has become familiar with fish patterns and habitat changes throughout the Marianas. He has noticed the way our coral reefs are slowly dying and he hopes that by sharing his experience with younger generations, he can help the community protect ocean ecosystems.
