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.
