Nicole Helgason

Nicole still remembers the rush of euphoria she felt first time laying eyes on a coral reef—a curious new universe unfolding before her. It was the summer of 2006, and she was on her first scuba diving experience in the Dominican Republic. 

Over the past 15 years, Nicole worked in the diving industry as a dive instructor, tourism manager, and coral conservation leader.

Since 2015 she worked as a writer and photographer, producing more than one thousand combined articles for both digital and print format. Nicole ocean stories come from an original perspective, focusing on corals. Since 2018 has partnered with Ocean Gardener as am ambassador for their coral restoration projects across Indonesia.

“Now more than ever, I see the immense value in documenting natural biodiversity in its current state. We must preserve the essence and memories for future generations with images and stories that spark conversation and maybe, just maybe, encouraging someone like you to take action and reclaim our home on this blue planet.”
