Swim in a kelp forest

Kelp forests really are an underwater forest. There are many kinds of sea plants and algae in the ocean. Sea plants and algae may be tiny and made of a single cell, or they may be giant and hundreds of feet long. Kelp forests are algae. Like coral reefs in warm water, kelp forests in temperate water are home to a wide range of creatures. Kelp is an important place for animals to live, and it is also an important food source. People use kelp too. Kelp is found in many products that we use everyday like ice cream and toothpaste.
