I agree. I would also like to go out to the sea and discover new creatures that I've never seen before as well.

There are so many to choose from. I love sea creatures and I could watch them all day.
I love the varied colorful saltwater fish (Nemo and friends), sharks, whales, but I think my favorite is the killer whale (orca).

I love seahorses. I don't know why. They're so unusual and delicate, they just fascinate me! :D

Wow! I think I like Lion Fishes more than Sailfishes! The sea is filled with some magnificent creatures!

I don't think I have a favorite. I love all the creatures in the sea. It is fascinating to me and I never get tired of going snorkeling or going on a boat to see all the wildlife.

Well there a lot of fascinating sea creatures. Whenever I get the chance to visit them, it sure is a relaxing moment for me. I would say I would go with dolphins. They are very friendly to humans. Young kids can even get close and interact with them. I love learning about all sea creatures and seeing them personally not just in pictures.
