Fish and eels were eaten. Some hand painted books like the Book of Kells had sea creatures in the artwork of the book. Pieces of jewelry often featured a fish or another sea animals. ( The Pics saw a salmon as a fish of luck and knowledge)

In medieval times, sea creatures had various uses. Fish and other seafood were important sources of nutrition and were consumed by people including the nobility. Whales were hunted for their blubber, which was used to make oil for lamps and in industrial processes. Additionally, shells and pearls from sea creatures were used for jewelry and decoration purposes.

If you mean, "are all under water creatures, sea creatures?" then no. The term SEA is for the ocean and there also can be creatures in freshwater.
