The sixth season of “Fascination of Water” spans a wide arc from the coasts of the Mediterranean to the coral reefs in the Pacific. Everywhere, land and sea are inextricably linked: through nature, culture – and the people who live off both. In the episode “The Mediterranean,” Uli Kunz explores our beloved vacation destination: from secluded islands to the most popular vacation regions. He observes one of the rarest seal species in the world – and shows how the Mediterranean is changing due to climate change and mass tourism. In the episode about the “Islands in the Pacific,” Uli dives into one of the largest marine protected areas in the world. He makes unique observations of nature, finds out why so many unique animal and plant species live on islands, and learns the ancient art of navigation by the stars.
