Curiosity or Fear of Sharks? Take the first step to explore that curiosity and be free of that fear! Be part of a cage free dive with an OneOcean safety diver today!!!
In 2020 | never in a million years thought ld be able to swim (without being in a cage) with sharks. I had a polarizing fear of all sharks since going to see JAWS 2 at only 8 years old. Unfortunately, this deeply impacted my life and relationship with the ocean. BUT, thank goodness for me discovering Ocean Ramsey, her amazing safety divers, boat captains, crew and her educational pelagic shark free dive programs!
IRRATIONAL FEAR NO MORE!!! It has changed my life in more than one way. Now having an educated respect of these amazing animals that has replaced that fear! I am able to love the ocean, snorkeling, free diving, and even scuba diving, without the constant sense of panic I exorcise experienced my whole life. I have learned to be aware of my surroundings in the deep sea, and even when wading in shallow water. I know there are sharks everywhere and I am in their home, and I treat it as such. Maybe I'll see you on a dive sometime. I'm kind of addicted now, lol.
Since December 2020, I have now swam freely once with TIGER sharks (yes, Tiger!), and done 3 dives with more than 50 Galapagos and Sandbar Sharks. And, I'm about to embark on my 5th dive later this month!!!
I advocate for sharks, I love sharks and I love to share my experience with everyone! Especially, the importance of respecting and appreciating sharks, and I highly recommend everyone to get educated. Sharks are a crucial part of our eco system. And, the ocean and world we live in needs and benefits from the shark population flourishing forever! #ILoveSharks
