The Seas & Scenes: Love the Caribbean Photo Contest 2026, hosted by Caribbean Compass and Environmental Protection in the Caribbean (EPIC), has officially closed after a month of stunning photography celebrating the people, wildlife, landscapes, culture, and environmental spirit of the Caribbean.
Photographers from across the region and around the world submitted compelling images and stories, from vibrant marine life and dramatic coastlines to cultural traditions, life on the water, and inspiring acts of stewardship.
With public voting now complete, the judges are reviewing the entries and selecting this year’s category winners. Audience Choice winners will be determined by popular vote.
Winners will select from a prize pool valued at more than US$3,000, generously contributed by businesses and organizations throughout the Caribbean and beyond.
The winners will be announced in late September. Visit epicislands.org/photo-contest-winners-2026/ to learn more and view the winning photographs once they are revealed.
