I think that's a Hammer film based on a Dennis Wheatley novel, The Lost Continent.

Think you're definitely right. Just saw that for the first time a couple weeks ago.

They were caught in a vast area of seaweed like the Sargasso Sea. There were ships that had been there since the middle ages and the descendants of the people stuck there then were still living there, and hadn't changed much since the middle ages.

They walked around on the seaweed with big balloons to keep their weight off it



If the balloons burst or they tried to walk on the seaweed without them they were liable to fll through and drown.
