Dive in: Take a tour through these amazing underwater attractions - Earth is more water than anything else. Humans have explored only 5% of the oceans' vastness and yet that tiny percentage houses some of the Pale Blue Dot's most biodiverse ecosystems. 

But living organisms aren't the only sign of life found underwater. Humans have also left their mark in the waters, dotting it with beautiful—and often tragic—reminders of our existence.

Take a look at these beautiful attractions.
