The ocean is beyond beautiful. Spent some time on the shores of NC and VA...

Started studying marine biology due to the oceans vast amount of mystery...Now it's "The ocean is beyond beautiful and just as deadly."

The ocean is indeed beyond beautiful. I'm not a marine biologist, but I went to Jamaica for my honeymoon and truly appreciated it there. A lot of my time was spent just ... Admiring the water.

I remember a Jamaican local commenting that she'd seen the ocean around the USA in movies and wouldn't swim in the ocean around the country based on that.

Also, I got punched in the face by a fish while I was down there.

Beautiful, though.
