The New York Aquarium recently partnered with National Geographic to create these stunning underwater maps of New York waters. Explore the seascape with detailed descriptions of wildlife at each depth, and geographic region in the area.

The New York Seascape stretches over 16,000 square miles of coastal and ocean waters from Montauk, NY, to Cape May, NJ. It's one of the world's most diverse and vibrant marine environments, containing hundreds of species of fishes, sea turtles, whales, and natural wonders like Hudson Canyon. It's also among the busiest waters on the planet. This new map gives you an in-depth look at this underwater marvel in our backyard. Zoom in and explore.
