An underwater communicator comprising a transmitter for transmitting acoustical energy between mediums having differing impedance. The transmitter includes first and second ends. The first end is exposed to a first medium while the second end is exposed to a second medium. In the preferred embodiment, the transmitter is formed from a material having a substantially identical impedance to the second medium. An acoustical lens is positioned adjacent the first end of the transmitter. The acoustical lens has a substantially planar front face and a substantially concave shaped rear face. The acoustical lens includes a plurality of spaced vertically extending plates. The vertically extending plates form a substantially right angle with the front face of the acoustical lens. A plurality of spaced plates intersect the vertically extending plates and form an acute angle with the front face of the acoustical lens, thereby forming a plurality of inclined passageways. Upon impact of the acoustical waves on the acoustical lens, the acoustical lens focuses and regulates the waves to maximize the concentration of the same upon impact of the transmitter at any given time.
