Science OutreachEternal Tides Photography LLC was established in 2017 by husband and wife team Kelsi and Patrick Nichols on the island of O’ahu. The team offers photography and videography adventure elopements across the islands. In 2021 the couple expanded their business to purchase a 1978 sailing yacht, Blue Planet, to create a sustainably focused sailing charter. Our goal is to create a platform for participatory research in marine science, while giving back to organizations and communities that work to protect Hawai'i.

Waikiki Water Quality Monitoring
The Waikiki Water Quality Monitoring Project consists of data collected from our monthly science charters. Participants are guided through the scientific process of collecting vital information on water quality as we sail from downtown Honolulu to Diamond Head. Guests learn about important indicators of water quality, impacts to human and coral reef health, and assist in gathering data that contributes to long-term monitoring of the waters off of Waikiki.
