Okay, snorkeling with sharks. Sounds a little crazy, maybe it is, but I did it. The tour I went on was in the Bahamas again. The way they managed to keep everyone relatively safe was to put a box of food down on the ocean floor and let the sharks swarm around it, then they let us all off the boat in a group and we just sat together on the surface watching the sharks below. So it wasn’t like we were petting them or anything, but still it was a little scary. The sharks were black reef sharks and they were big. It’s hard to get perspective from the picture, but there were some six-foot sharks way down at the bottom. Once we were all out of the water, the guides brought the food up and then fed it to the sharks on the surface. It was defiantly a unique experience, a little more intense than swimming with the stingrays.
