The winning photographs will form part of the traveling exhibition that will tour the Balearic Islands during the year 2025. "All the images in the contest make it possible to create a collective view of the sea that surrounds us.

Thanks to all the people who participated - without your generosity we wouldn't know what's hidden under the water - and to the organizations that make MARE possible year after year"
