Default Spotted near Corfu

I'm totally new to this site and hope I've hit on the right one!
At the start of this month I was on holiday in Corfu and one day, along with
many others, I watched - and was able to photograph and video - a fish
swimming back and forth in the shallows right against the foreshore on the
west side of the island.
"Nothing surprising in that." I hear you say but let me continue ...
It was of slim profile, about 70-80cm long, bright blue (almost electric
blue) on its upper side with a silver underbelly and had the long 'nose' of
a swordfish.
Could this have been a juvenile swordfish? One of the instructors from the
local diving school suggested it was a species of barracuda but I doubt
that - even as a non-fishing person!
It fascinated us for almost half an hour before swimming away into deeper
water!
