Yes. Bikini Atoll (You may have heard of this famouis atoll) was populated till the US decided they wanted to test Nukes their and kicked the local population off in 1946. Sure, why not? People live on Wake and Midway Islands which are both atolls.

No, no one can swim to the bottom of the ocean and live. At least not in the deepest parts of the ocean. It's just not possible. Just to cite one reason, breathing any compressed gas mixture (and it would have to be compressed) would be fatal long before anyone could get anywhere near the bottom.

Not to mention, the pressure would be something like 2000psi.

Yes, sea otters, seals and sealions. All of these animals are mammals. No amphibians live in ocean water. They cannot osmo-regulate so salt water dehydrates them rapidly and they die.

Sure. Take a glass of water and hold it over your head. Then breathe. You're now breathing under water.

Not at this time.
