THE MISSION

Catalog marine life.
Explore other creatures.
Have an adventure.

A modern photo log to catalog every species you've spotted, track your journey through marine habitats, and challenge yourself to complete them all.

01

Observe

Spot and photograph marine species in their natural habitats. Every encounter counts.

02

Catalog

Organize your sightings by species, habitat, and season. Build a record that grows with you.

03

Discover

See what you haven’t found yet. Every habitat shows you what’s still out there.

04

Challenge

Take on full habitat completions. How many species can you log in a single biome?

WHAT YOU GET

Tools built for the ocean.

SPECIES CATALOGS

Work through the ocean.
Species by species.

Sea Log is built around the habitats that define marine photography. Coral reefs. Kelp forests. Tidal pools. Pick a biome and build your species list one sighting at a time.

Every sighting updates your progress. The species you haven't logged yet are still there, waiting. Come back to the same habitat a year later and see how your list has grown.

Spotted this giant on a night dive off Kona. Wingspan easily 4 metres. Unreal.

Was this the manta night dive site? Incredible shot.

Track where you've been.
Map every dive.

Sightings puts every observation on a map. See where you've encountered each species, track your dive sites, and discover new locations based on what others are finding.

Your sighting log grows with every dive. Pin locations, add notes, and build a geographic record of your underwater explorations that gets richer over time.

WHY SWITCH

Already using iNaturalist or a dive log app?

Your underwater photography is breathtaking. It deserves more than a citizen science form or a basic dive log. We built Sea Log because the marine community deserves tools as beautiful as the ocean itself.

Facebook replaced MySpace. Strava replaced training logs. Apple proved that design wins. The diving community deserves the same leap forward.

dedicated platforms

iNaturalist (general purpose), generic dive logs

Astronomers and birders each have a dozen platforms built specifically for how they observe, capture, and share. Marine photographers have been expected to make do with tools that weren't designed for them. Sea Log exists because the ocean deserves its own dedicated platform.

ORIGIN

Sea Log grew from years of diving and snorkelling with no good way to keep track of what we found. A photo roll isn't a field journal. You want species names, habitat data, depth, conditions, gear used, and a way to share discoveries with people who actually understand what they're looking at.

The ocean deserves more than a photo dump. It deserves a system that understands what a coral reef biome is, why revisiting the same dive site matters, and how satisfying it is to watch a species list grow over months and years of exploration.

Sea Log is built on that instinct: real ocean, real species, real people who care about the craft.

Observe. Catalog. Discover. Challenge.
