Which time? And should I include "Seas"?

[Ex USAF, 10 duty stations in 22 years, various temporary duties in many
places and vacations... I got around a lot--I didn't go fishing in all
the listed places, in some I went swimming. I was in the water and,
well, I was already wet... so I figured I should include them.]

Atlantic off Maryland, North Carolina, Florida, and Spain.

Gulf of Mexico off the coasts of Florida and Texas.

Mediterranean off the coasts of Italy, Greece, and Turkey.

Adriatic and Tyrrhenian Seas off the coast of Italy (Tyrrhenian off
Sicily too).

Pacific off the coasts of California, Hawaii, Guam, and Japan (didn't
make it to the west coast to the Sea of Japan.)

Yellow Sea off the coast of Korea (Seoul area, not sure if it's still
the yellow sea in the south off Pusan--that one could maybe count as
either the Sea of Japan or Pacific).

I always wanted to make it to New Zealand and Australia but so far I
haven't.
