Pro Sound Effects has released its latest library, Submerged.

Featuring 230 sound effects recorded using a hydrophone (underwater microphone), Submerged is a collection of underwater sounds that enables sound professionals to harness the unique sonic properties of water in any audio project.

Submerged includes uniquely captured sound effects such as underwater fireworks explosions, cyclones, air releases, and cracking ice, as well as fundamental water sounds including bubbling, bubble streams, splashing, rushing/dripping water and an assortment of underwater vocalizations needed for any underwater scene.
