We have now identified over 300 individual white sharks in the bay that we dive in. And most astonishing of all, we had trips with 3 dive days in which we saw over 50 different great whites.

We had breaches left and right, one after another. It almost seemed as though the sharks were showing off and reminding us that they can get the bait anytime they want.

There were a lot of sharks both at the surface cages and the submersible cages. Everyone was in awe of the massive females that showed up toward the end of the day.

In the submersible cages the sharks were so close to the cages that you could see their eyes looking at you when they passed by slowly.

I stepped into the cage, grabbed the lower bar for stability, was handed my regulator, and submerged. I turned around just as a great white swam past my cage. Holy moly!
