Under the Sea Doodle by CraftHippie
I love this doodle page. Not only are the doodles gorgeous, but I love that the final product creates one larger image instead of 30 separate images. ate images.
Mermaid in a Bottle by @gigis_journal
I did not find a ton of mermaid or fantasy-based under-the-sea layouts. However, I love the novelty of this one featuring a mermaid in a bottle. Additionally, the artwork is fantastic.
Blue Seahorse by @tiny_bujo
This seahorse layout is super creative. Don’t you love how the seahorse appears to be breaking out of a very geometric blue shell. You can even see the shattered pieces floating around in the layout.
Black & White Under the Sea by @metro_boulot_bujo
Something rare among these under-the-sea layouts is black and white. Most of these layouts are vibrant blues and oranges. However, this one is super detailed and gorgeous but it is just black and white.
Sea Turtle by @thebujobuzz
This little blue turtle is the cutest darned thing! Additionally, the art and lettering styles are to die for! I would love to see the lettering process for this one!
Dolphins by @gigis_journal
Dolphins are one of my favorite (maybe my favorite) aquatic animal. I was lucky enough to swim with some on my recent vacation. I loved it so much, how could I not include some dolphin layouts in this round-up?
Whale Weekly by @allorasbujo
For this layout, the creator used watercolor in such a calming and beautiful way. I love that the same style was used in her daily circles as well as in the whale. Additionally, the lettering here is perfect!
Octopus Boat by @mydearsputnik
The art style and lettering used for this under-the-sea layout is phenomenal. Additionally, the creativity used in the art piece itself is super unique. I love the space spin on it!
Sea Dragon by @jannplansthings
Here is my only other fantasy-based ocean layout. This sea dragon is beautiful and the art style cannot be matched. Additionally, I love the use of gold.
Whale Mood Tracker by @thefakejournal
How cute is this whale mood tracker!? I love this idea for a summer-time or underwater-themed mood tracker layout.
Underwater Wildlife by @rachelbujo
This hello August layout is super colorful and fun to look at. It really screams summer and is a perfect representation of the beauty of underwater wildlife. Though this layout does not feature any animals per se, I still love it.
Tentacles by @_enaart
the calm nature and use of light blues really make this layout stand out. Not to mention the tentacles that creep out of the waves. It is not clear what creature we are looking at, but that’s the beauty of it!
Blue Fin by @allorasbujo
I’ve seen this layout quite a few times in my browsing and I couldn’t help but to include it. I love that it features only the back fin of something. Additionally, the blue watercolor spots are such a great touch!
Under the Sea Weekly by BangBangJournalang
Here is another layout with phenomenal artwork. I cannot tell what was used to create this one; however, I love the way the octopus wraps around the meals section. The octopus really gives this layout depth.
Seashell Mood Tracker by @explorejournaling
Who doesn’t love a fun mood tracker? this one shows off some cool shells in an ocean wave!
Hello August Abstract by @thefrenchbujo
We showed off a seahorse layout previously that is a similar style to this one and I just love it. This layout instead shows a whale who appears to be breaking out of a shell. Additionally, there is a wave creating a nice circular feel.
Jelly Doodle by @bulletjournalbymarieke
This is less of a layout and more of a spread. Regardless, I just had to include this beautiful jellyfish in my round-up.
Whale by @mydearsputnik
I feature a few layouts similar to this one but they are too amazing not to include. I love how differently everyone portrays whales in their underwater layouts.
Dolphin by @thebujobuzz
Here is another aquatic animal breaking out of a geometric shell! This dolphin image is perfect! If you love the use of geometry, check out some other geometric bullet journal layouts here.
Jellyfish Doodle by @study.bunnie
I love when people teach us how to create some simple artwork. For those of use who are a little more artistically challenged, it really allows us to create simple art! This one shows off a few different ways to doodle a jellyfish.
Fishtail by @miz.bujo.art
I haven’t featured much fish in this round-up yet, and I only have one to share. This layout shows off a gorgeous blue and orange fishtail. The detail here is fantastic!
Space Whale by @jannplansthings
How creative is this space and underwater theme? I love how the space cat is riding the whale in outer space. Love space-themes? Check out some astrology-inspired layouts here.
Sea Horse by @creative_desaster
This little blue and green seahorse is really neat. @creative_desaster use a neat style utilizing circles or dots. This pairs super well with all the bubbles throughout this spread.
Blue Jellyfish found on @bullet_daily
who doesn’t love a good jellyfish! Check out this beautiful blue jellyfish layout!
Ocean Waves by @bulletjournalbymarieke
The art style in this layout is, once again, a really cool piece of art. The waves are broken up into sections which are different shades of blue and it is flawless.

The Great Wave by @gigis_journal
Here is another adorable dolphin layout! Additionally, I love the lettering used for this one!
Hello Whale by @not_subtitle
This quote and hello page is perfect and absolutely minimal. These two whales appear to be swimming around at night. The quote reads “Chance to take it all back whatever it takes.” I am not sure what this quote is from. Check out more bullet journal quotes here.
Jellyfish Weekly by @bulletwithe
This is my favorite jellyfish layout of all time. these two jellyfish appear to be dancing with one another. Additionally, the gentle use of color is beautiful.
