Beneath the ocean’s surface lies a vast world teeming with extraordinary life, from shallow coastal waters to the deepest trenches.
This book explores the stunning diversity of marine species, some so otherworldly they seem straight out of science fiction. It highlights biodiversity hotspots, from Mexico’s gigantic whale sharks and South Africa’s great white sharks to tiny nudibranchs, pygmy seahorses and the charismatic coconut octopus.
Featuring over 100 breathtaking close-ups of corals, seahorses, anemones, turtles, sharks, whales and more, this beautifully illustrated edition from Reed New Holland’s Deluxe natural history series celebrates ocean life while emphasizing the need for marine conservation.
