Thalassophile/Thalassophobe

I don't know too many people who aren't thalassophiles, but among those who aren't, there might be thalassophobes​. 

A thalassophile  (thuh-lass-uh-file) is someone who loves the sea and ocean. I am one  of them. I particularly love to lie on the beach in the dark and listen to the powerful waves roar and hit the sand. -phile at the end of a word generally means 'lover of.' 

A large group of thalassophiles in their natural habitat.

A thalassophobe (thuh-lass-uh-fobe) is someone who fears the sea and ocean. I am definitely not one of those! Also, -phobe at the end of a word generally means 'one who is afraid of.' Like in phobia or fear of something. A claustrophobe is afraid of small places, which I am. 

A very unlikely thalassophobe!
