After signing several pages of legal releases and presenting a scuba certification card, I was ready to begin my adventure. The dive site is nearly a mile offshore in 45-foot waters. Once we reach bottom, divers sit shoulder to shoulder to prevent sharks from swimming between us. He swims toward the concrete slab about 10 feet in front of us. He carries a long cylinder filled with frozen Canadian herring.
Sharks are the true stars.
A couple notice the handouts. Suddenly, out of nowhere, more sharks appear. They range in size from 4 to 9 feet. More than 10 sharks start to gather around us, swimming in from overhead and all directions. They swarm the feeder.
