BEST OVERALL

Nothing is more synonymous with scuba diving than the antique diver’s helmet. Although almost no modern divers know what it’s like to dive with such a helmet, we still all love the symbol. Grab this desk decor for yourself or your favorite diver, and they’ll be thanking you every time they sit down to work.

BEST FOR SHARK LOVERS

One of our very favorite home decor options for ocean lovers and scuba divers includes this rug complete with a shark pattern. Available in a range of sizes, this rug shows everything from whale sharks to hammerheads and thresher sharks. We could imagine this in a kitchen, living room or bathroom. This really is a great choice for anyone who can’t have too many sharks in their life.

BEST WALL DECOR

Educational and stylish, these shark and whale posters are every bit as useful as decor as they are for learning the various marine species. They could work well in a kid’s bedroom or a bathroom, but really they are subtle enough to be hung just about anywhere. Our only criticism would be the inclusion of the orca on the whale poster.

BEST FOR BATHROOMS

Some people might say that octopuses are an overused marine life decor motif, but we beg to differ! We don’t know a single diver who isn’t tickled by seeing these cephalopodes. And, this has to be one of the most inventive pieces of home decor for ocean lovers that we’ve seen. This cast iron octopus is designed to hold your toilet paper, blending into most bathroom interior designs.
