If you could go eye to eye with sharks, would you do it?
I took the plunge, and couldn’t believe how many different shark species I got to see underwater while swimming with sharks! Below is a snippet of my experience!
Something that surprised me was learning that humans are more of a danger to sharks that they are to us- we actually lose 10,000 sharks an hour, mostly due to overfishing. So if you eat seafood, please choose sustainable options to help our shark friends!
