Say what you will about Android, but one thing Google does know is Maps. And it’s initiatives like these that continue to just blow people away. Having already assembled an insane amount of data regarding terrain above ground, Google is now looking to explore the underwater world.

This ocean collection includes six of the world’s most incredible underwater spots, including coral reefs (and their inhabitants) in Australia, the Philippines and Hawaii. This imagery is available to millions of people through the Street View feature of Google Maps and in our Street View Gallery at: maps.google.com/ocean.

Check out this video below.

And hilarious YouTube comment of the day, “Why don’t they blurr out the fish faces?”

Touche.
