Swimming With Sharks 5 months ago

I’ve seen so many movies with people swimming with sharks, and well…this is something that I’ve wanted to do since I’ve seen other people swimming with them.



Swimming with Sharks 7 months ago

My family was snorkeling at Bathtub Reef in Florida. We had heard that nurse sharks, which are harmless, are common in the area. So when we saw sharks while swimming we thought nothing of it. We saw probably 3 or 4 sharks that were about 5-6 feet in length. We were swimming after them to get a closer look. The next day we were at a dive shop when we saw a newspaper about a school of bull sharks that had been in the area. We had been swimming with bull sharks, one of the three most dangerous shark species and the #1 shark for bites in Florida! The owner of the dive shop, when we told him about chasing after the sharks and our general ignorance, said “That’s why all the tourists get eaten” and laughed. We like to tell the story now and feel like badasses.

well, i am planning my trip to south africa to dive off the coast of cape town! i am looking at july of 2009, but will have to wait and see if i will be able to afford it. started a second job last night so i can hopefully pay for it. if not, it will be july of 2010. either way, it’s going to be amazing! my sister is going to go with me, and we are going to check out some other areas of africa as well, since it’s about 23 hours of traveling to get down there!

Did it in DR on vocation. Sharks didn’t have teeth (they remove them). They had a section blocked off in the middle of the ocean about 1 mile from shore. They had sharks and stingrays. It was pretty cool but sharks kept avoiding contact

Sharks terrify me, yet I am completely and totally obsessed with their great strength and strange beauty. One day, I would like to complete this task so that I may gain a better understanding of this amazing creature and, ?maybe?, conquer my fears.



Snorkeling with reef sharks 14 months ago

Did it in 2001 in Bora Bora. I was with a group that watched the sharks get fed a lot of chum, and then if you wanted you could snorkel in and amongst them. It was great!
