Plot

Ocean Girl is the story of a girl named Neri who lives alone on an island. As explained by the show, she had travelled to the planet Earth on a spaceship with her father when she was young. Her father died of an unspecified sickness soon after. Neri then held his responsibility of protecting the Earth's oceans. A humpback whale (who she names Charlie) had saved Neri after she fell off a cliff, and they became friends soon after.

All of the other main characters live and work on a research and environmental protection organization named Orca, located off the coast of Australia. This organization is one of the major focuses of the story. Nearly every episode involves the underwater research facility. The main characters on the station are:

• Jason and Brett Bates, teenage brothers whose mother Diane is a scientist at Orca,
• Diane Bates, a scientist who happens to be studying the songs of Charlie

Throughout the four seasons of Ocean Girl, Neri, Jason, and Brett have many adventures together.
