Calypso's Search for Atlantis (part 1)
A chance aerial photograph takes Captain Cousteau off on a new quest: searching the oceans for the long-lost civilisation of Atlantis.
Cousteau and the crew of Calypso investigate many of the legends that have perpetuated since Plato's first suggestion of a lost city under the sea. At Dia, an island off Crete, they discover more than a myth -a sunken harbour and sunken ships. Was this a port for the Minoan kings at Knossos? Was this Atlantis?
