the ocean around your island, dive and collect sea creatures you can't
catch with just a rod. The sea creatures confirmed so far are:

This update also brings a brand new character to the game:
Pascal. Pascal relaxes in the ocean and goes to trade for sea creatures you have captured
for ocean, mermaid and shell themed crafts. On top of that, Gulliver
dating has been updated, it has a new outfit, and there will likely be new ones
the items you can get from him.

Finally, this update is one of two. Summer Update # 2 will be
arrival early August. These updates are free to players.
