Bringing ocean stories to the Aegean through the power of film, sustainability and shared experiences

This summer, Istoria, a Member of Design Hotels in Santorini and Parīlio, a Member of Design Hotels in Paros, are bringing the story of our oceans closer to guests through a series of special screenings of Ocean with David Attenborough, organised in collaboration with the Cyclades Preservation Fund (CPF) as part of the Revive Our Ocean Greece initiative.

The initiative invites communities across Greece to come together through screenings of the acclaimed documentary, using the power of storytelling to inspire greater awareness and action for the protection of marine ecosystems.

A story of the ocean, brought to the Aegean

Ocean with David Attenborough takes audiences beneath the surface to explore the extraordinary richness of the world's oceans, while highlighting the pressures facing marine ecosystems and the urgent need for their protection.

The screenings also connect with the wider work of the Revive Our Ocean Greece initiative and the Cyclades Preservation Fund, which works to support effective marine protection across the Cyclades and beyond.

Through initiatives such as this, we aim to explore ways in which hospitality can become a platform for awareness, dialogue and positive environmental impact.

Surrounded by the Aegean Sea, our destinations are deeply connected to the marine landscapes that define the Cyclades. By bringing the ocean's story into our hotels, we hope to encourage curiosity, deepen appreciation for these fragile ecosystems and inspire a more conscious relationship with the natural world.

Because protecting the places we call home begins with understanding them — and with remembering what lies beneath the surface.
