| "The first time you enter the water and dive with sharks, you realize that everything you thought about sharks, everything you've been taught about sharks and everything the media has tried to convince you of about sharks, is all wrong. These are incredible creatures that move through the water with grace and purpose. You have little to fear from them but they have much to fear from us. After 400 million years ruling the oceans, humans are wiping them out at an alarming rate. After diving with sharks you will leave understanding that sharks deserve our admiration, respect and protection."
