The Antillean manatee is so cool! This episode was so jam-packed, between the Manatee and the sharks/rays and even the cave. Definitely had me glued to the screen lol
7:20 did anybody else see the nurse shark that looked like a different color? It was a warm orange/pink color. Totally reminded me of a shiny Pokémon because it was the only one like that in the group! 😂 so pretty
❤ Olivia and Max at Sunrise Scuba are amazing. Max taught me to dive and we snorkelled with the nurse sharks. The whole experience was fabulous. Highly recommend them! ❤
They are delightful people and I highly recommend their shop!!!
I first started watching you when I was 7 and you made me want to get SCUBA certified for MANY years and 3 years ago (I was 10) I finally did. I haven't gone on many dives but thank you for making me want to SCUBA dive I love the ocean and care about it and I thank you! My dad introduced me to you for something to watch and I certainly enjoyed it. I have probably watched the bull shark video around 10 times... Much love
So glad to hear it. More diving!!!!
This morning, Sunday, November 20, 2022, I was swimming in San Juan PR bay between El Morro and Fortaleza when one of these stunning creatures surfaced about 20 feet from where I was swimming! I can't imagine that there are many on this busy section of Puerto Rico's San Juan Bay. What a shock and delight for my husband and me! It was large like Marco in your video. I only discovered your channel today after searching the internet to discover if indeed I could confirm that Manatees inhabited the Caribbean. and if so, in San Juan...Yes they do! Thank you for such a wonderful video.
Wow thats interesting and amazing!! You are lucky indeed. There are about 600 manatees in the waters are Puerto Rico, but it's a very big place, so not very easy to find one. There is a rehabilitation center on the island which could be an interesting day trip.

My family took us to Cay Caulker when I was 8 - glad to see it’s still as beautiful many years later
This channel is criminally underwatched 😭 such good videos
I agree. It should be a crime to not watch our videos!
Jonathan if u do comeback to the same area where Marco is, it will be easy to recognize him because of bite mark on his tail
This channel is amazing, thank you for putting so much quality in the production.
Glad you enjoy it!
Finally a new episode!!!! 😍🤩🥳
You know, manatees really do look like mermaids. I can totally see why sailors thought they were fish-tailed people.
4:00 oh my gosh I’m sensing a new cave diving episode!!!! 🤩🤩🥳🥳
8:30 - Most beautiful underwater "scene" that i have ever seen...
Thanks Jonathan for providing us the real glimpses of ocean...
I have been watching your videos for 4 years now. I have never though I would be able to scuba dive because I lived in a land locked country in the middle of Europe. I moved a year after I started watching your videos to key west. And just started scuba diving 3 months ago. I have never had so much fun before. You have led me to scuba diving. Thank you :)
How cool is that?????? Congratulations!
Try to one day do the search of the weird looking coelacanth of Madagascar, lots of humpback whales there too! Plus Manatees and Dugongs NEED be fully protected!!!
Great video, perfect length for this one too. We have their cousins, the dugong, in Moreton bay off Brisbane, Australia, and they're endangered too. Wonderful that you guys had that experience. The ones here are very shy and I've never seen one like you have in this footage. Excellent work. The nurse sharks are so cool too. Can't wait for the next video.
We did an episode with Dugongs, but we filmed them in the Philippines.
This video is amazing for people looking for a a way to learn about these amazing animals!
Oh my gosh I love nurse sharks! They look like cute little kitties! 😍
8:29 oh my gosh stop! That is too cute!!! I really hope they’re actually hugging and not like sizing each up to eat 😂
I think they were fighting over the same food to be honest.
11:27 So majestic 😊
They are very awesome to see.. I hope you have a wonderful day..😁💕😎🌈👍😇
How precious! ❤️ I am loving these episodes! 😭
Ps. I'm from Belize!! It's sooo soothing! 🙏🏻 Thank you for sharing your adventure !
U are right jonathan because when people like me think of manatees I usually think of the ones in Florida I never think of other species of manatee
I remember watching all of your videos since I was 7 to 8 years old now I'm 16. Really love your content💙
Glad you are still here!
The Mermaids of the sea ..nice
Hi Jonathan, I noticed that your video "Cave Drift Dive" where you explore manatee spring state park and catfish hotel was unexpectedly privated. Just wondering what happened to it because I really enjoyed watching that video along with your other cave diving videos. Anyways, I look forward to seeing more of your fantastic work.
It came under some criticism and we thought it would be better to take it down for the time being.
As always very educational and excellent videography and narration.
11:00 it looked like it stopped on the seafloor to pose for the camera 😳😄
Love watching his programs
I love how you went looking for Manatees but ended up having a bunch of mini adventures on the way and found a manatee!
Beautiful stuff. Just watch out where that poop is floating! 😅👍
Adorable lil guys
I agree.
All the sea creatures are so cute! We respect them and they do their business!🎉
Love jour videos
Beautiful, thank you.
thank you for this episode! I love manatees but I live in New Zealand so this video makes me so happy
I've been following you since I was 5 I'm now 10 I love you guys xxxxx
Thanks for being a long term subscriber!
Adorable vid, sharkies, sea life, a potential cave, & that manatee was a cutie!!! Plus I know somebody who loves manatees so...
it looks like the manatees waved hello
I have to say the music is fantastic in every episode. Great job !
Our film composer Bruce Zimmerman will be delighted to hear that!
it's a wonderful, excellent, incredible video like the others from Blue Word... 🤩🤩🤩
Thanks!!
It would be nice if each glad diver remembers to bring a snice soft brush for those manatees who suffered knot having such itch relief for so my years, intuitively finding kelp forrest to do enough penetration and soothing grace for us.
thanks so much to reading this message and allowing others to notice❤
This is cool!
Beautiful sea animals
Lovely
Beautiful
Really it is your first time??? Woww, top of my bucket list
Blueworld💪❤
Keep safe
Here in Dominican Republic is a lot of manatee cuando yo tenga más suscriptores haré videos con ellos, good job man
I love ❤ Blue world 🌎 💙
So glad!!
I miss these videos
You don't have to miss them....we put out two new adventures every month!
You’re my idol I love to watch your videos thank you for inspiring me blue world is great I love it
Beautiful footage! I bet that current was wearing you out.
It was strong!!!
Manatees are cool, but just how wet are the rocks at the bottom of the cave?! :p Love it.
Cool video!
Very nice video, I didnt know about this manatee species.
Your work is amazing.....🔥🔥🔥🔥🤝
Thank you 🙌
Because of you, I'm now working on getting my Scuba Diving Certification. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the ocean and every amazing creature in it. Sadly, I don't live in a state close to the ocean at all, but I'm still getting my certificate, so if I travel one day, I can definitely use it!! Thank you for your videos. My favorite animal is the humpback whale 🐋, so I look forward to more video with whales!!
That's awesome to hear! Congratulations! And guess what....most people fly to cool places to dive. One of the best underwater photographers on planet Earth (Chris Newbert) lived in Colorado for decades. If you have to fly to the best diving anyway, it makes no difference where you live. Get certified and enjoy a whole new amazing world. Everything else will seem boring by comparison.
Thank you!!!! 😊
you deserve a billion subs
Thanks for making such contents this is really intresting
I get to know about your channel from biomentors classes ( biology )
wonderful
After watching your latest video with your whole family, your kids are so grown up now! Are they both in college yet?
Elise is in college. Liam is a junior in high school.
Thanks!
Thank you for your donation to the channel!!!! 😀
@@BlueWorldTV thank u for ur program, johnason, I wish I can contribute more in the future
In brazil, manatee is called bull fish or ox fish (peixe boi).
That makes sense...they are sometimes called sea cows in Florida.
Are all the different kind of stingray they look more blue than the other ones I’ve seen in your videos
I love to swim
wow secret place
I hope antillean manatees find a way back to better population nature's.
thanks Jonathan bird for such a good video. I hope schools might use your videos for extra credit.
We have about 50 videos on a site called epic, which is used a lot in schools.
thanks for mentioning that kind of emotional love and values. I hope they remember you and team of close supporters.
What cameras are you using?
1:45 that's terrible an American Crocodile attack. Florida is the only place to find both gators and crocs living side by side. However Crocodiles can handle saltwater then Gators because they have specialize salt glands like most sharks. gators dont have salt glands because if they stay in saltwater too long they will get sick
That's right
I honestly didn’t know Florida had both gators and crocs! Wuuut!!?
@@kimichan5 That's true!
@@kimichan5 because nobody has not heard of American Crocodiles
@@AllieThePrettyGator You're right
Manatee sea cow of ocean
Hi Jonathan! Great video as always! I was unhappy to see clickbait in the video thumbnail. The Blue World is cool enough on its own--it doesn't need to be edited to look cooler or more sensational. A cautionary tale is Brave Wilderness, which quickly sacrificed quality for sensational clickbait. Don't let that happen to Blue World! My two cents. Thanks!
Everything that appears in the thumbnail is in the video...so I'm not sure why you think it's clickbaity? It's very hard to make a decent manatee thumbnail that invites people to want to watch the video.
Hi Jonathan! Thank you for replying. The thing I found clickbaity was that the manatee was edited to be right next to the sharks and stingrays, while in the video the manatee never came near the other animals. I really appreciate the hard work you do to bring us this amazing undersea content!
@@BlueWorldTV cant please everyone!
Found you from Dive Talk! Love your vids so far. My children will love them for some of their homeschool lessons too! 🙏🏼💫💜
Hii very very nice jii big like👌👌💯
I'm an aspiring photographer and would love to know if you could make a video about your videography, camera tips, and diving journey ?! 😃
We have some fun stuff coming!
Another wonderful clip. Love this channel.
What is the method of traveling the whole world?
Airplanes.
4:38 someone abandoned a bike down there lol? People are strange.
I don't see a bike!
Manatees are endangered?
I thought they're friendly.
🤣

Idea start a recruiting company where you teach kids ages 15 to 9 diving.
What we would really like to do is start a network of participating dive shops.
Nurse shark
You said Elisa would be in the next episode. And she like Liam and Christine aren't. Did you mean they'll appear in the next episode you have them?
They are in the next episode from Portugal, coming out Dec 17.
Hello, what you are doing is very great, but unfortunately we cannot understand everything because of the language barrier between us. I hope to activate the Arabic translation with the rest of the languages so that the benefit reaches everyone. It is unfortunate that this huge work is not understood.
Why can you scuba with sharks but not snorkel with sharks?
You can but sharks usually are around deep places and you get a better and safer experience with scuba
