Jacques-Yves Cousteau (1910 – 1997) was a French naval officer, explorer, ecologist, filmmaker, scientist, photographer, author and researcher who studied the sea and all forms of life in water.
He co-developed the aqua-lung, or SCUBA gear, and pioneered marine conservation, says Wikipedia.org.
He explored the world's seas in his research ship, the Calypso. He made films about the seas and fishes that were aired by National Geographic.
One of the many places he popularized - for its underwater beauty - was Isla Cozumel, Mexico.
