When sailing, one can immensely enjoy watching the changing of the beautiful sceneries and take an interest in the animals seen along the way. However, sailors are now faced with the devastating pollution and damages done to our rivers, bays, and waters. Sailing With Paros: Our Beautiful World presents a desperate plea for help in preserving our earth's sacred ecosystems.
