About this puzzle

This medium puzzle hides 14 ocean words in a 12×12 grid. Words read forwards across, down or diagonally. Nothing is hidden backwards.

Ocean tip: Several ocean words repeat the same few letters — CURRENT and CURRENTS, SEAL and SEABREEZE. Once you find one, mark it mentally so you do not mistake it for its longer cousin.

Source: NOAA: about 97 percent of Earth's water is in the ocean. (About 97 percent of Earth's water is in the ocean.) NOAA Ocean Service: How much water is in the ocean?.
