Hidden below the surface of the temperate Cornish seas is an amazing array of colourful marine life, whose diversity challenges that of a tropical reef. Indeed, many of our species are closely related to those in warm waters, for the Gulf Stream divides around the peninsula, bringing warmer, clearer waters that propagate a diversity of marine life not generally found elsewhere around the UK's coastline. A multitude of invertebrate species, including anemones, soft and stony corals, and even sea fans more common on coral reefs, paint the rocks with carptes of colour, and fish life is profuse, with shoals of bass and mackerel, wrasse, flatfish, blennies, scorpion fish, tope, sharks, and visitors from warmer, Southern waters.

Charles Napier Hemy, 1841–1917, was ‘the most accomplished marine painter of his generation. His intimate knowledge of the sea was central to his art – the ocean’s swell, its power, strength and dangers are all captured with a brilliance rarely equalled and never surpassed.’ (Brian Stewart, Director, Falmouth Art Gallery, in the Introduction.
