Dungeons with Aquatic/Atlantis theme?

I have this old civilisation in my current campaign that basically were Atlanteans from space. I need a good dungeon that conveys either an aquatic (bonus points for flooded dungeon levels) or Atlantean theme.

Help is highly appreciated.

PC 3 - The Sea People - is a BECMI D&D module and expansion for adding underwater races and adventures.

There is also another BX/BECMI module that involves a giant floating flooded conch. And likely others.

Take any standard dungeon and flood it and you have a good start there with some tweaking for aquatic environs.

I seem to remember vaguely that the Sea People was pretty good. Its one of VERY few Mystara products I don't own.

How about the D2: Shrine of the Kuo Toa. just switch out the race.

If you want a ruined undersea city use the map from I1: Lost City.

Or, if they are from space, how about a bunch of wrecked spaceships from Traveller, Star Trek, wherever. One of the best sci-fi novels is Startide Rising by David Brin, which features junked underwater spaceships waiting to be ground up by plate techtonics.

The Swords & Stitchery blog has been running reviews of the old U Series (Secret of Saltmarsh, Danger at Dunwater, The Final Enemy)... and each seems increasingly aquatic. U3 The Final Enemy has a delve into underwater Sahuagin holdings... the entire 2nd and 3rd levels are flooded and feature an underwater arena.

X-7 War Rafts of Kronn: BX module for above and below the waves. This and The Sea People are really great undersea settings.

X-6 Quagmire: This is one of the modules set with a giant flooded conch city. Would make a great retheme as part of Atlantis I thought.
