Underwater Museum Seabed of The Mexican Caribbean
The seabed of the Mexican Caribbean is now host to a series of life-size sculptures on display in Mexico's Underwater Museum. But they are just a few of the 400 statues that will be lowered down to the bottom in the following months. Located in the National Marine Park, the Underwater Museum aims to raise environmental awareness by creating an artificial reef. Scientists hope the statues will attract young algae that will color them vividly. Announced for over a year now, the world's largest underwater museum recently received its first exhibits.
