VIDEO: Rock music fans get into deep water in underwater concert

Hundreds of music-loving snorkellers and divers, joined by long-distance swimmer Diana Nyad, attended an underwater concert broadcast at the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.

Such songs as the theme from The Little Mermaid, the Beatles’ ‘Yellow Submarine’, and Jimmy Buffett’s ‘Fins’ entertained listeners during the four-hour session at the so-called Lower Keys Underwater Music Festival, at Looe Key Reef.

Snorkellers ‘jammed’ underwater on mock guitars or pretended to play a whimsical fish flute. Others wore costumes depicting mermaids and seahorses, as music sounded from waterproof speakers suspended beneath boats.
