Hoping too
Going snorkling with Stuart Cove in Nassau. And if time allows we will swim with the sharks. I will accept the responsibility to hold the bait box.... I am pumped now but ask me in 40 days if I really swam with them....

I believe you're right that they are nurse sharks, but I have to disagree with you....swimming with a Mako or a Great White would be A LOT different than swimming with a nurse shark!

Nurse sharks aren't nearly as large or as dangerous!
