Shark Diving can be intimidating. If you are a beginner swimmer or someone who doesn’t have a lot of experience in the ocean or around sharks this guide is for you. Fear is normal, but with the right understanding and preparation, it can turn into confidence.
Shark Attacks are Fairly Rare
There are many myths about sharks but not all of them are true. One of the biggest mental hurdles we get from a variety of shark movies is that sharks see people as prey. In reality, unprovoked shark killings only happen about five times per year. Sharks primarily fishes, mollusks, rays, turtles, seals, or other sharks. Humans are not a food source for them. One recommendation when swimming with these species is to be respectful, calm, and to follow the instruction of the experienced professional before doing anything.
