Beneath Irish Seas - by Nigel Motyer (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Beneath the crashing waves and jagged cliffs of Ireland's coastline lies a world few have ever seen, teeming with kaleidoscopic colour and untold beauty. Through the lens of internationally acclaimed underwater photographer Nigel Motyer - whose work has graced the pages of National Geographic - this stunning visual journey reveals the vibrancy of Irish waters, alive with astonishing biodiversity and compelling natural drama. Motyer, diving and photographing Irish waters since the 1980s, shares an unmatched portfolio built over decades. Beneath Irish Seas explores Ireland's coastal waters and the habitats that make them unique, unveiling the extraordinary marine life that thrives around our shores. From swirling shoals off the Skelligs to rare encounters with basking sharks in the Atlantic depths, this is the first book to comprehensively document Ireland's underwater wildlife through powerful, vibrant imagery. Eye-opening and accessible, Beneath Irish Seas challenges the idea that marine wonder belongs only to tropical reefs. The magic is here - just off Ireland's shores, waiting to be discovered.
