Hey everyone! I’m pretty new to snorkeling and lately I’ve been going down a YouTube rabbit hole watching different spots around the world.

I randomly came across a video of someone snorkeling around an airplane wreck in the Bahamas (apparently it’s linked to Pablo Escobar, which I didn’t even know existed). Thought it was a pretty wild find.

Made me curious, what are some of the coolest places you’ve snorkeled? And what’s on your bucket list?

If anyone’s interested, I can drop the video I saw in the comments, it’s a pretty unique spot.

Found on Tybee Island, Georgia

Can anyone identify these? Edit: not my video. I don’t need Reddit to tell me not to touch animals lol

I was just wondering if the Megamouth discovery in 1976 changes how you think about Megalodon's extinction at all?

A 36 million year old shark. Never documented, never theorized, found completely by accident when a Navy anchor snagged one off Hawaii. It had been there the whole time.

I find it hard to square that with the confidence some people have that Megalodon is definitely gone. The fossil record going quiet isn't the same as confirmed extinction — especially in an ocean we've barely looked at.

Not trying to start a cryptid argument, genuinely curious how shark people think about this.
