Scuba diving allows humans to go beneath the surface of the deep blue sea in order to understand a whole new world that lives within the ocean. People can get up close with exotic fish, coral, and other undersea fauna that they might otherwise only see in pictures. But if they’re really lucky, they might even have some close encounters with some of the sea’s most majestic creatures! Such was the case for one experienced diver and his friend who captured everything on camera when some seals approached them.
Diving in the Isles of Scilly
Two unsuspecting scuba divers were in for the experience of a lifetime when they entered the chilly waters at the Isles of Scilly. Located off the coast of Cornwall, this archipelago’s economy relies heavily on its production of cut flowers, mainly daffodils.

But the Isles of Scilly are a popular tourist destination in the U.K. and people go there to see much more than flowers. These scuba divers knew to look beneath the surface.
