That is around French Polynesia. They look like Coral Reefs? I assume your talking about what is off shore..

I would assume reefs or sandbanks, possibly just below the surface of the ocean. Looks like dry land in the top right?

Yep. but the exactly point she can't remember. She told me she has more films but it took so lang to get them on youtube, where you could see in the neighbourhood streets and buildings below the seawater???

I will post them here as soon they're online.

Hi Op,

Personally i would agree with others right now, these will be atolls and sand banks looking at the proximity to the shore line.

The look of the sand also indicates that it's a tropical location and thus of course coral is a high possibility for the other lights.

Nice find

squid fishing

hmm weird
not much happens down near antartica so i dunno
some type of schooling fish/plankton/krill type thing?

not really sure about the rectangle, its not perfect so could have something to do with light refraction, water depth dunno

I think the rectangles are just where google pieces the pics of the earth together...it's like a large collage.

The US built many airstrips on coral atolls during WW2,some just for emergency landings and were never used as aerodromes.
That might account for the regularity of shapes and straight edges.

Who says dinosaurs have no brains?
I knew that much, lol.
I have studied WW2 quite a bit over the last 40 years.
First pic I'd ever seen of one though.
Navy seabees (Construction battalion) built those.
I wonder if anyone owns them or if you could just go squat on one and own it?
