In addition to the photograph of him posing in his scuba equipment, Aaron uploaded a captivating video of him in the water, swimming above anemones. In the video, Sam swims over to hold his hand.

"This was the best way to end 2024. Faced a fear and learnt how to dive. Swam with some sharks and found Nemo," Sam, the Fifty Shades of Grey director, wrote on her Instagram page.

Their adventures didn't stop there, however. The couple also shared photos of them riding their bikes with stunning scenery all around. It appears to have been an enjoyable vacation filled with new experiences.

Both comment sections were flooded with warm wishes for the New Year.

Aaron has had immense success in the film industry, starring in movies such as Nocturnal Animals (2016), Bullet Train (2022), Kraven the Hunter (2024), among several others. He has played in numerous films falling under the adventure and action categories, so it's no surprise that he gave scuba diving his all.

Sam's most recent project was the documentary, Back to Black film which tells the story of famous singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse. It was released in the United States on May 17, 2024 and continues to reach a wide audience.

It will be interesting to see if Aaron and Sam venture out into the sea again for more scuba diving excursions. In the meantime, it is likely that they will be settling back into their routine and working toward having a successful 2025.
