Having set out from Switzerland in 09/2023, Louis Margot is continuing a world tour without motors or airplanes: cycling on land and rowing on water. In 10/2025, he reached Raja Ampat, Indonesia, after 250 days spent on the Pacific Ocean and 17,718 kilometres rowed.
Up close with the ocean
Crossing an ocean at wave level means seeing what is rarely visible from land. Throughout his journey, Louis was confronted with the presence of plastic waste, including in remarkable marine areas. His experience puts a tangible face on the challenges we encounter during our expeditions.
Coming together around action
By becoming an ambassador for The SeaCleaners, Louis seeks to dedicate his adventure to raising awareness and rallying support. His stories, exchanges with local communities, and imagery help spotlight the cleanup and prevention initiatives we are developing, particularly in Indonesia.
Sport, adventure, and commitment unite around a shared conviction: protecting the ocean requires tangible solutions and collective action.
