It is a program written by journalist José Serra, RTP Azores, which addresses several issues related to the sea.
This program is only transmitted in the Azores, but should have a national impact. Unfortunately, the direction of the public channel, rarely takes the opportunity to show what best can be done in television, also on the islands. Is Public service of excellence, because it shows different realities of a territory, but this time in a more environmental dimension. They should focus more on the silver of the house rather than buy and deliver the same programs on wildlife. Mar à Vista is such examples. The author and journalist José Serra, with the support of biologist Philip Porter, addresses various issues related to aquatic wildlife that abounds in the waters of the Atlantic in the nine Azores islands. There are six documentaries about 30 minutes that in my view are of high quality information. First, because there is a large scientific rigor that gives great credibility to the documentary. Another thing to keep in mind is the images, some unseen seabed around the islands and some sanctuaries for wildlife, particularly birds. The way the program addresses the issues has a very interesting rhythm, as we hear the expert opinions and fishermen, as expected, are important sources of knowledge about the various species that inhabit these areas of great water depths. Interestingly it was the show about white sharks in the Azores, whose link is at the end of this text and worth watching.
