THE Sungai Pulai estuary in southern Johor reveals a hidden underwater realm as the tide recedes. The seagrass beds, usually submerged, become visible in the shallow pools of water. Members of Save Our Seahorses (SOS), led by their director, Dr Adam Lim Chee Ooi, carefully disembark from their boat, stepping into the shallow waters with a sense of awe and purpose.
 

Lim likens the scene to the mythical city of Atlantis rising from the depths. The group proceeds in a single file, their eyes scanning the calm, shallow pools where seagrass sways gently.
