“How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly Ocean.”
This quote from author Arthur C. Clark is well-known in diving circles and with good reason, as the Earth is really just 30 percent land to nearly 70 percent water.

So if you need any more reason to be in awe of just how unbelievable the ocean is, just press play!
