Ákos Boros is the founder and heart of the AquaVesto Foundation — a diver, explorer, and ocean advocate whose life has been shaped by the wonders of the underwater world.
With over two decades of experience, Ákos has guided others into the depths and dedicated his life to the preservation of marine ecosystems. His work reflects a powerful blend of exploration, education, and a deep-rooted commitment to ocean health.
He holds several professional certifications, including:
NAUI
– Diver Instructor
– Divemaster
– Rescue Diver
– Underwater Archaeologist
– Wreck Penetration Diver
He is also a member of DAN (Divers Alert Network), the world’s leading organization focused on diver safety, emergency response, and hyperbaric medicine.
Ákos has gained practical experience in creating sustainable marine environments. He has worked in aquarium systems, where he was responsible for designing and maintaining artificial marine habitats — recreating the ecological conditions necessary to support life in closed systems. This background has given him a profound understanding of the delicate balance of marine ecosystems — knowledge he now applies in efforts to support natural habitat recovery.
What sets him apart is not just his expertise, but a quiet devotion to the sea — a calling to explore, protect, and breathe life back into places most will never see.
„To explore is to understand.
To restore is to give back.”
