Cindy at Sea

Welcome to the visual heart of Costanoa—where storytelling, skill, and connection to the ocean come together. Every image you’ll find here is created by Cindy Yang, ocean explorer, freediving and spearfishing coach and professional photographer.

With years spent both in front of and behind the lens, Cindy brings a unique perspective to every session—balancing technical expertise, creative direction, and a deep respect for the environment. Whether it’s underwater, on land, or along the coast, her approach is rooted in authenticity and the belief that powerful stories unfold naturally.
