Kate Middleton And Prince William Enjoy Snorkelling In The Bahamas

Prince William and Princess Kate have shared new footage from their visit to Earthshot Prize winner Coral Vita in 2022, as they embark on a scuba diving trip in the Bahamas.

Prince William, who founded the Earthshot Prize in 2021, visited one of his previous winners alongside Princess Kate, as they donned scuba diving gear and took to the water.

Coral Vita is an organisation that protects threatened ecosystems, by growing diverse and resilient corals and out-planting them into degraded reefs.

Reflecting on winning the million-pound prize two years ago, the founders at Coral Vita said it is the “greatest honour” of their lives.

The royal couple then ventured out to see on a yacht, where they put on scuba diving gear and headed down to the sea bed with Coral Vita.

Prince William jumped in the water first, closely followed by Princess Kate, who held on to her ponytail as she made the jump into the water.

The Wales couple can then be seen on the sea bed, examining coral with the Coral Vita team and helping with their coral farming program.

The pair look natural as they swim along the floor of the Atlantic, assisting the team with planting newly created coral.

Reflecting on the success of the Earthshot Prize so far, Prince William said: “There’s limitless scope for what the Earthshot looks for.

“The whole point of it is it’s a global platform to really raise the profile of smaller voices or extraordinary solutions that might not have made it onto the global stage just yet and say, look, this idea has got legs and we can build it and we can make it bigger and we can make it better.”

“Now it’s getting to a really serious crunch point where we can easily continue what we do and we will have a planet worse off in years and years to come.

“Or we can change course, start to really think about how we’re going to repair, find the solutions, act and scale these solutions and we can be better off and in a healthier world, providing jobs and healthier outcomes for everyone if we if we can do that.”
