- Join me for a day while I go snorkeling in a marine reserve in Portugal! We had the perfect Winter day for an outing to the beach. We were snorkeling in the Luís Saldanha marine reserve, a marine protected area integrated in the Arrábida Natural Park, not too far from the Portuguese capital. We saw a lot of cool things and had a great day. I truly missed being in the water, even if it was quite cold!

You are doing a good job by attracting people by the means of mainstream media (the meg and subnautica) to the topic of ocean life and bringing more awareness
And that's very smart to bring awareness through entertainment
Thank you! That is a very sweet message :)
It's my dream to be able to scuba dive and be a marine biologist
Go for it! =D
SAME
Too bad my ocean is so cool...
It is my dream to be a life guard or a marine biologist
Same 😁
I would watch a documentary if Maria was the host, like this video
You're so blessed to have a home next to the great Atlantic Ocean! I've also been blessed by seeing this Ocean many times, absolutely breathtaking. But 16 degrees C is really warm actually. My dearest Baltic Sea is like 3 degrees C at the moment. 😃 Amazing footages, loved it.
Thank you! The Baltic is also lovely. But I was only there during summer and the temperature did remind me of the Atlantic temperatures during Spring
lol I was thinking that too, I'm also up by the Baltic and 16 C is pretty much the best you get on an average summer day here. I'm guessing Portugal must be a really awesome place to go swimming in the summertime.
this was really well said, shot, and edited in a way that I don't see from many other youtubers. keep it up!
Thank you! :)
Let’s just recognize her mom for the help with this video! Thank you mom for the help on this wonderful video! 😆
Haha thanks a lot! That is very sweet and made her very happy =D She was a great help indeed
You did a great job editing and everything felt so beautiful and serene.
Thank you! ☺ I'm happy you enjoyed it!
Couldn't imagine going to the beach in winter, much less getting in the water where I live. It looks very peaceful there
oh my the environment there is a painters heaven. I would love to visit, explore the nature and paint all day.
You've made it a bucket list item for me to now go snorkeling with someone who is actually knowledgeable of the ocean instead of just a quick tour ♡
ok. My only question is.... why? why this video is so short????
i want more. Far much more. Such perfect landscapes; and you.
i have just found your channel through the subnautica videos and it is GOLD. the way you talk about what it is you're doing is just so wholesome and positive
This channel is going to do so much good in getting people interested and appreciative in our world and wanting to fight to protect it.
That brought back memories of my snorkeling adventure on the great barrier reef off the north eastern coast of Australia
Love the footage of all the marine environment there, and the outcropping geology around the place. The ripple marks of the sandy sea floor will always look soothing for me.
so easy to fall in love this place is
Ghad! She's living my dream 🥺
Darn it it’s during school for me :(
same
Great Job Maria, I like these peeks into another industry.
Such a beautiful video with such great music choice and clips. It captures a whole different layer of beauty of this incredible landscape. Thank you so much for sharing this adventure!
Thank you so much for this sweet comment 🥰
Subnautica IRL
You lucky you here in SOUTH AFRICA they closed all the beaches, so all the warm weather but no snorkeling :'(
I can't believe how well made her videos are.
Aw thank you! ^^
the part where she was talking on that bridge had some documentary vibes
6:10 I know the pain well ;)
A great reminder that sometimes what you need is just a day at the beach
Absolutely agree! A bad day can turn into a good one just like that :)
I Wish I still fit in my wet suit. It has been years since the last time I was scuba diving.
So glad you're looking happy & able to get in the water Maria! Also, I love your Subnautica videos, I've been considering filming some gameplays too and been recommended that game so much! Let's see if I get the courage 😋. Hope you're healthy & safe x
Thank you! You should definitely film some gameplays. It is quite fun! =D I will be waiting ;)
i'm glad you had a nice day, its rare to have nice days nowadays :D ... i hope you saw a peeper.
Thank you! ^^ Yes, we must appreciate and remember the nice days
I'm making 2 comments because the topics of each are so far off from one another. Lol.
Watching this really brought back a few great memories: The first of which was while being stationed onboard my first boat, I'm in the U.S. Navy Submarine Force, and we were doing a swim call in the Caribbean. You couldnt really see them before you jumped in but once you got in the water you saw, what was probably, hundreds of tiny (1 in. or so diameter) brown jellyfish. That was the first time I had really swam in such close proximity to anything other then a human or domesticated animal so I was really in awe of it.
The other was while I was stationed in Hawaii on the island of Oahu. There is a place up on the North Shore called Sharks Cove. It's a "small" natural sanctuary. There we always tons of small fish, sea urchins, even a couple of sea turtles in there everytime we went and the deepest part of it was probably 20ft so snorkeling was the best and easiest (imo) way to see it all.
I for sure saw what you ment by the current made filming difficult just by watching the fish and such knocked back and forth during the few clips you did get.
I was brought to your channel by the subnautica playthrough but for sure have been sucked in by all the other content you provide for your community. I hope you keep having fun while doing this (because then what's the point?) and bring us along for the ride as much as possible!
This Video is so wholesome i could explode.
Please keep doing what you do right now, the value is just priceless, we need more people like you. I love your videos!
That is a very kind comment. Thank you very much! I plan on continuing :)
I'm very impressed that you could get enough underwater footage while snorkeling! I am a scuba diver so I can keep my camera steady while filming my dive videos. When I snorkel, I IMMEDIATELY float back up to the surface (buoyant butt LOL). I love these types of videos - can't wait to see more! :)
This videos is really well edited. congratulations!
I didn't know you are from Portugal.
Hi from Brazil.
Olá! Thank you ^^
Nice one, very enjoyable and informative watch and great to see that the reserves work. Thanks for taking us along on this beautiful day! 👏🏽💙
Ohhh, the coast of Portugal looks so beautiful. I'm jealous!
nice to see your vlogs again! i like how you explain interesting marine stuff about the places as well
Rija 😌👌
Living on the gulf coast of florida, I wish the water was as clear as it is over there so that I could see the wonderful flora of our waters. At least there are endless shorelines to explore. Marine life and study was such a common part of my life growing up that I forgot that some people have never seen the ocean or never learned how to swim. I guess seawater is just in my veins. The flow of the waves has always been so calming for me. I'd live in the water all of my life if I only had gills.
Please come visit the Gulf of Mexico someday. We have wonderful sealife like marlins, tuna, sailfish, and stingrays. Our manatees are particularly adorable and the mangrove forests are incredible. We'd love to have you stop by for a snorkel. ^^
Hi Jacob! I totally understand the feeling of the sea just being part of who you are. I feel that too.
I would love to visit the Gulf of Mexico. I've hear it's amazing to dive there
Forget subnautica, this is beautiful
That was very nice to watch, above water filming was stellar as always, and like you said, underwater filming was inhibited by other factors, but you're killing it by virtue of doing it. Plus, there's a kind of charm to not having absolutely EVERYTHING be perfect regarding cinematography.
Whenever the virus clears up (fingers crossed),, a series on different aquatic sanctuaries would be cool to figure out how to do. Like what specific issue made the sanctuary, what kind of pushback there was if any, and the impact seen over it's lifetime. Basically the information you provided on this one and whatever else you think would be relevant.
Again, great vid as always, even though there were little hiccups, but I'm sure you're going to use them as learning experiences rather than make habits out of them. No matter what you decide to do, I'm excited for the future of the channel as always!
Thank you for the sweet comment. I would really love to make more videos like this when all this clears up and I'm able to go to other places. The sanctuary idea is actually pretty great! Thanks for that
Thank you for the great video :) The place looks so lovely, I miss the open sea and ocean much
Where I live it's thousands of kilometers to any big water (Russia, Siberia) at least I can feel it like this 😃
absolutely beautiful shots and I love the background music!
Thank you! 😊
If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend snorkeling out in the Caribbean. I went on a cruise out in the Caribgean a few years back and went on a snorkeling excursion and it was a great experience. The water is so clear and calm and warm as well. I got to see all kinds of fish and couple of sea turtles as well.
I would LOVE to snorkel at the Caribbean
This was lovely! I hope you get to film more underwater videos like this!
foi onde comecei na zona de Sesimbra / arrábida, mas como vivi 25 anos em s. Miguel, passou a ser a minha paixão...
This is a very well made video.
Wow such beautiful landscapes! Can’t wait to go to Portugal :-)
Can't wait for you to come visti!
Really enjoyed this, glad I found your channel
Beautiful video Maria - well done! And it's so cute that your mom was helping you with the camera work :)
Great film work
Thank you!! 😊
I love how moved by nature you are. I want someone to look at me like u do the sea 😆
Hello dear friend. You looks very beautiful. Niceeeee vdo updated by you. Lots of love.❤️❤️❤️
Great Video Maria! We really enjoyed seeing (did not felt like 10 minutes, it went flying), and the quality is amazing O_O !
Next summer lets hope for fair winds and calm seas, and check that place again.
Glad you enjoyed it! =) Can't wait to go there again. Maybe next time we could go also diving in Berlengas! :D
well made video
What you do sounds so awesome and fun inwpuld love to do it and it seems like you have been in some very beautiful places
Might be late but I only discovered your channel just today! And I already love the content you post continue the good work!
Thank you! =) Glad you enjoy it!
I understand you missing the ocean and being glad to be back in it. I just moved from Washington state, USA right on the Puget Sound and Pacific Ocean where i could dive whenever i wanted to Kansas, USA where the nearest thing to dive is 5 hours away. I miss the water. I'm glad you are able to get back in the water.
Que vídeo bonito, Maria 🥰
Mais vídeos assim!!
Olá! Obrigada Maria ^^
Very epic
Love your video , can't wait for going back to freediving
Hope you can do so soon!
That water looks freezing!
Hello i just want to say that you have brazillian fans '3' thanks i love your videos
Deu pra perceber o trabalhão que deu pra fazer as filmagens. Mas o resultado, junto com a edição, ficou incrível. Adorei o video!
Muito obrigada! Gosto muito de fazer este tipo de vídeos :)
I kept expecting a peeper or garryfish to swim by😀
As long as it's not a kamikaze fish, you're good.
I guess it's my Canadian side. But that sounds like the water is warm. :)
Okay, so apparently my comment never made it here, oops! This was an amazing video, I love it. I was expecting a vlog with fun footage and some nice music in the background, but we got an episode of wildlife fit for the discovery channel instead. I imagine it took a lot, but it really paid off in the quality! I'd totally be up for more of these Location Episodes (and I'm not joking, I could see it being a whole series)! Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the fun info as always. Especially loved that goofy section with the wetsuit. Keep up the good work!
Hi! Thank you! I'm very happy you enjoyed it :) I loved making it. Once lockdown is over and I'm able to go snorkelling and diving again I would love to more of these kinds of videos ^^
Great video :O
Thank you!
0:54 that's why I prefer the warmer south shore of Algarve.
Mainly Tavira island. The water is like 25°C or above.
I don't like cold.
However, nothing beats the thermal water of the Azores.
29°C and up.
I love hot springs, I loved to visit Azores, and I absolutely love volcanoes.
Yeah, warmer water is definitely better to stay longer, especially if it's not very warm outside. But I also like colder water, especially in the summer :)
@@Seamemaria I'm super skinny, I can't retain heat at all.
Back in 2019 during the heatwave in the summer I was doing fine with 38°C.
I think I may be a reptile. 😅
AAAA o Bom dia
Obrigada! 😊
Officially played Subnautica in real life.
Your job is a complete dream, I'd love to do things like you, I hope you are going to share more with us later 🙂
Thank you! =) Once everything returns to a somewhat normal status, I hope I can go diving and snorkeling again and share many more adventure with you all :)
Sad that very few people get to see what you do, that's why they don't care about it's preservation. We are in lockdown here so I've not been to the coast since 2019. Portugal is so beautiful
Sorry to hear you can't go to the coast. Total lockdown also started again in Portugal, so I can't go to the sea again either. Hopefully soon things will go back to a somewhat normal state. Thank you for the sweet comment :)
Really great footage of the area. Almost feels like a behind the mask episode.
Thanks! That is quite the compliment, their videos are amazing!
Being stuck at home all day due to the pandemic, this video is a breath of fresh air. :)
aw! I'm so happy you enjoyed it :)
Nice!
Reminds me of my own attemts to take snorkeling videos, kinda.
Just that im no biologist at all :-(
oof very nice filming & editing
I just done my snorkeling experience week ago when I went to andaman island with family 🤩 snorkeling was just splendid 💯 have no words to describe it❣want be a marine biologist but worried because of my sea sickness 😵 . Maria sis you really made on the top of my inspiration list 😇keep going ❤
Don't let the sea sickness put you off, it is just a form of motion sickness, like most forms of travel sickness, you can get medication to reduce or even nullify the effects. Fun fact for the day, Admiral Horatio Nelson suffered from seasickness for his entire life... yet it did not stop him from pursuing a career at sea.....
@@alganhar1sure, thanks 👀❤
Need to see
The Western-style whistling was awesome. Where did you get it from?
Hi Maria😊!!!
I love the vibes I got from this video. I think the scenery is absolutely stunning!!! I think it's amazing you get to go on these incredible dives, and thank you so much for sharing all your amazing adventures!!!
Great video!!!❤
Thank you for your very sweet comment! I am happy you enjoyed it :)
I am jealous of that beach. All I have is the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, as you probably know have been polluted and destroyed by oil.
I'm really sorry to hear that. Oil spills can have dramatic impact in marine wildlife :( Hopefully we become better at taking care of the oceans
I almost went into marine biology but switched to engineering. Don't actually regret the change because it just means that the ocean is nothing but fun for me.
You can still go snorkeling and do all sorts of fun stuff with the ocean without being a marine biologist! :D
@@Seamemaria exactly. I realized I don't want to associate something that was so much fun for me with work.
Truly beautiful, that water must be really cold i dont know how you werent shaking after coming out to the shore hahaha
It was actually quite OK with the thick wetsuit. I got a bit cold at the end, but not even that much :) Good to have good equipment
@@Seamemaria Yeah, its getting out of the wetsuit it gets cold!
Can you check out the Gargantuan leviathan (AKA The titan Leviathan) from subnautica?
It is a modded creature, but there are bones of it in the lost river, in the base game.
Have any studies been done to measure how many more fish the sanctuaries have led to?
Really well made video loved it, I'm from Brazil but i never went to the beach lol did you ever came to brazil ?
Brazil is very big! Not all of it is close to the shore. But hopefully one day you get to visit the coast. It looks beautiful! I have never been to Brazil, but I would really love to!
I’m from portugal yaya
Eu também! :)
POG
Yes, very.
I did badly at school so it's too late for me. I'd love to be a marine biologist.
I wanted to start by saying how beautiful that area is and how well I thought this video was put together. I also really enjoyed the scenes during which you were walking and or driving away from the camera. To me that really added to the video. Was this done with only one camera and a go pro?
Hi Zachary! Thank you! =) I'm very happy you enjoyed it! I love making these types of videos. This was all shot with one camera. Just the shots from the car were shot with my phone. :)
5:16 that Guy with the Camera hahaha "oh, now thats a better view"
07:11 "Hey look a Peeper", also everybody is gangsta in the Safe Shallows...that's it for Subnautica references... I'll see myself out. It was a nice wholesome video Maria. Good stuff!!
Haha! Real-life shallows ^^
@@Seamemaria as much as I like computer games I'm definitely loving this content. I do hope you'll make more content of the actual underwater world 😊
For me taking off the wetsuit was always harder than putting it on! :)
@1:28 but you DID bring weights! 4Kgs! Still lovely footage! Also nice story about the fishermen!
Yes true! But not for my legs. The weights for my waist were find though :)
WOW it looks amazing i guess who disliked the video
Thank you! 🥰
@@Seamemaria no thank you for this amazing channel
Hey I really want to become a marine biologist when I get out of high school but my only question is the reaserch I don't know if I am going to be able to make some research and have hypothesis and get it approved to be able to go out to the field and find out if my hypothesis is right.
"Winter". I guess technically ;) (I am Swedish, btw) :P
Haha yes. Our concepts of Winter might be slightly different 😅
Have you seen Beyond Blue? I'm wondering how accurate it is. It's an ocean exploration game as visually beautiful as Subnautica, but on earth. I also think you would like it - even if it's only a pale comparison to the real thing.
Less snorkeling in the real environment that matters and more playing in the inconsequential environment of Subnautica, haha.
😂 Don't worry. More Subnautica will come eventually 😁
@@Seamemaria
Ignore that heinous fiend, this was a very nice video and makes me very envious =)
@@mattiasbrunzell8957 What sets Maria apart from other youtubers is she's actually interesting and no matter the content she puts out it's always fun to watch.
@@Seamemaria Good, I liked that series A LOT
Remember this channel isn’t about video game dont force her to do that if she wants to continue it she can if she doesn’t then you can’t really force her like a said before this channel isn’t about gaming it’s about marine stuff (now I love gaming and am a gamer myself I found this channel cause of subnautica but all her videos are interesting not just the video game ones)
I don’t know how often you reply to your comments but can I ask what kind of/where you got your wetsuit? I’d appreciate finding quality equipment to use.
Lmao im just here for subnautica, also, that does not seem like winter y envy u...
Amazing, so less fishing meant that there would be more and bigger fish to fish. Additionally, your content is so soothing. I think such vlogs, discussions, subnotica and probably other educative videos of idk anything, but not the biggest fan of the movie reacting thing as i don't have time to watch movies as a predmed, and i wouldn't understand your reactions much. If you love reacting to movies, maybe react to songs would be a nice new content for you to try out.
