Sound travels faster and farther in water than in air, which can make it difficult to accurately determine the direction of a sound source underwater. Additionally, underwater environments tend to have more acoustic reflections and distortions, further complicating the perception of sound direction.
What else can I help you with?
How does moving your head let you tell where a sound is coming from?
Moving your head allows your ears to detect differences in sound arrival time and intensity. These differences help your brain localize the source of the sound by comparing the information received by both ears. By moving your head, you can triangulate the sound's direction based on these auditory cues.

The sound is muffled because in the air the air vibrations travel to the eardrums and that wont work under water vibrations travel through your bones. Also you cant tell were the sound is coming from because both ears will hear a sound simotaineusly as apposed to the air where your brain can tell which ear it hit first
Can you tell where the sound comes from when your blindfolded?
Yes, if both of your ears are free, then you should be able to detect the direction from which a sound is coming. Your brain detects direction of sound by the minute difference in volume of sound and the slight delay in sound reaching one ear if your head is turned away from the sound source. ; - If one of your ears were fully plugged, you would not be able to detect the direction of the sound without turning your head. If the sound is more or less continuous, however, you would turn your head and by the differences in volume, determine the sound source. ; - By the way, if the sound source is moving, you should also be able to detect the direction it is moving the the rising or falling pitch of the sound. To test this out, stand by a railway crossing when a train is approaching while blowing it's whistle. The pitch of the whistle will change as the train approaches and again as it retreats from your position. Does the pitch rise or fall as the train approaches? ; - This Is The Hypothesis But, You Can Use It As An Abstract ;
