Thousands of Brazilians gathered at São Conrado beach in Rio de Janeiro on June 8, 2025, for a deeply moving symbolic ritual called ‘O Abraço’ (The Hug) — an emotional embrace of the ocean to mark World Oceans Day.
The ceremony, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Rio’s coastline, serves as a powerful reminder of the ocean’s importance and the urgent need to protect marine ecosystems. Organised by local activists and environmental groups, the event symbolizes unity, environmental consciousness, and a growing public demand for sustainable ocean policies.
People from all walks of life — including children, divers, indigenous leaders, and climate advocates — formed a human chain along the shoreline in a heartfelt gesture of solidarity with the sea.
This year’s World Oceans Day theme emphasizes collective action and indigenous wisdom in restoring the health of the world’s oceans, making this moment from Brazil especially poignant.
