Is it normal that i'm afraid with a vast ocean or a deep pool?

Is it normal that i'm afraid with vast ocean? i don't know, but when i was swimming, i always feel afraid to look down/ closed my eyes.
And when i was swimming in a pool, i'm very afraid and sometimes trembling whenever i saw a big pool's logo under my feet. especially when the pool is deep.
sorry for bad English.
Thank You.

    When you swim in the ocean, you step down quite a few rungs on the food chain. Not so much in a pool, unless you are worried about all the bacteria in it.

    I am sorry for you. Sailing, surfing, swimming, and scuba diving are some of the best recreational pleasures to have.

    Can't say I've experienced that phobia. As humans tend to float, the bottom of a body of water scares me less than the top portion where I'd be worried about keeping my head above water.

    I've always been terrified of what could be lurking within the ocean or a river, lake-- when I was younger I couldn't even take baths because I would be so scared.
