The government has launched a series of videos to showcase the Island's underwater life.

The videos, compiled by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture and the Manx Wildlife Trust, highlight animals and habitats in each of the Island's 10 nature reserves.

Pictures and underwater videos have been provided by individuals and businesses, featuring swimming queenies, octopus, and small sharks feeding around a camera.

The videos can be watched on the UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man Youtube channel.
