This book chronicles the first research project ever conducted at
underwater hotels. Narrating fascinating tales from underwater hotels
and shedding light on the provocative perspectives of their designers
and temporary inhabitants, this imaginative sensory ethnography will
enchant and surprise at every turn, leading readers to wonder whether
we humans belong underwater. Through their peculiar and captivating
narratives featuring inquisitive manta rays, nosey trumpet fish,
industrious corals, and pizza-delivering SCUBA divers, the authors
show how modern-day Atlantis is now a fully realized utopia with the
potential to redefine where else we humans can live and how else we
can relate to our watery planet and its multiple aquatic lives. The
book appeals to students and researchers in geography, more-than-human
studies, architecture, and tourism studies. In doing so, it challenges
us to reenvision not only the borders of contemporary tourism and
underwater travel but also the very essence of humans as
more-than-terrestrial beings.
