May 10th is Mother Ocean Day

Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call

Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall

Youve seen it all, youve seen it all

From Jimmy Buffet’s Mother Ocean

The creator and the introducer of this day are South Florida Kayak Fishing Club, which is relatively a new celebration, and the day is introduced first in 2013. Then the City of Miami declared this day officially. Then the day is celebrated for wondering the beauty of the ocean, and it is quite surprising for the residents of Florida who come forward with this idea of celebrating the day.

Mother Ocean Day is celebrated on May 10th of every year. Mother Ocean Day spotlights the entire magnitude of the body of water, which makes our life possible on Earth. Marine biologists are unsure how many creatures are living in the ocean. Oceans cover more than 70% of the earth and contain 97% of our water.

• Pacific Ocean is the biggest one.
• You can find mountains and volcanoes on the bottom of oceans.
• The deepest point in the ocean is the Mariana Trench
• Oceanic evaporation is the source of most rainfall.
• Ocean temperatures determine climate
• Earth is the only known planet that has oceans (as far as we know for now).
• The biggest animal in the ocean is the blue whale.
• We have explored less than 5% of the ocean (to date).

From you womb we crept,
many of us yearning to 
embrace you again.
