There are mountains inside the oceans. The pressure on them would be more than atmospheric pressure. But if the mountains are above ground surface then the pressure would be less.

Unless the mountain and the ocean are at the same altitude, they would have different atmospheric pressure.
The reason is that the majority of mountains are located higher up than the ocean. Therefore, they have less air above it, and thus, lower atmospheric pressure.
