Articles: Diving with Sharks
|
My first dive certification was obtained while I was stationed in Hawaii for the U. S. Army. I had been facinated with diving my entire life and was finally making my dream come true.
Diving with sharks had been a goal for many years and I was able to first dive with them in Hawaii, and more recently, in 2004 at Anthony's Key Resort.
in Roatan, Honduras.
These next two photos are of Gray Reef Sharks which are the common reef sharks that are fed daily, on the same sandy reef are, to provide
divers with the opportunity to witness these magnificant creatures up close.for shark feeding experiences.
They are fed dead fish, by a specially trained diver, who protects himself with wire mesh gloves. The sharks' loose teeth, which sometimes
fall out, are given to the tourist divers as souvenirs.
Here in the Cayman Islands I've only seen Nurse Sharks, usually hiding quite well on the reefs.
When I spotted this one so "out in the open" I was very glad that I had my camera with me.
