10: Pavlopetri Sunken City
One of the oldest submerged cities in the world was found off the southern coast of Greece just a few years ago. Research from 2009 revealed that the sunken city of Pavlopetri covered at least nine acres of land and was inhabited somewhere around 5000 years ago.
9: Loki’s Castle
One of the more mysterious things found underwater is a place called Loki's Castle, and it was found deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean somewhere between Greenland and Norway. Unfortunately, it's not actually the castle of the legendary Norse god of mischief.
8: Vandenberg Shipwreck
If you found yourself diving off the coast of Florida, you might stumble upon the wreckage of the Vandenberg. This amazing vessel was sunk back in 2009 so that it could become an artificial reef. It's now sitting under roughly 140 feet (42m) of water, 7 miles (10km) from Key West.
7: The Yonaguni Complex
The Yonaguni Complex is arguably one of the most mysterious things ever found underwater. It’s located off the coast of Japan, and speculation says that the ruins of this monument date back at least 10,000 years.
6: Underwater Spider
If you were terrified of spiders already, wait until you meet the mysterious underwater spider that spends its whole life beneath the surface. This is known as the diving bell spider, and it breathes air yet lives underwater.
5: The Skeletons of Roopkund Lake
The remote Roopkund Lake in Northern India contains a disturbing mystery. A British forest guide first found this lake back in 1942, and ever since then experts have struggled to figure out why the small lake is filled with hundreds of human skeletons.
4: Lake Michigan Stonehenge
If you can't make it all the way to England to check out Stonehenge, you might only need to take a trip to Michigan. Recently, in the middle of searching for some sunken ships, a professor of underwater archaeology from Northwestern Michigan College stumbled upon an ancient rock complex under the waves that looks a whole lot like Stonehenge.
3: Ancient Greek Computer
One underwater mystery that has been boggling scientists for years is something known as the Antikythera Mechanism, also known as the very first computer. It sat at the bottom of the sea for over 2000 years before it was discovered.
2: S.S. Gairsoppa
A deep-sea exploration company recovered roughly 48 tons of silver from a British ship that had been hit with a torpedo back in World War Two. The name of the boat was the SS Gairsoppa, and it was sunk off the coast of Ireland in 1941.
1: Lost Highway to Atlantis
There has not been much proof that the lost city of Atlantis is real. Unfortunately, it's just not a thing that has been proved. However, one of the most convincing pieces of archaeology that could have something to do with Atlantis is known as Bimini Road.
