Shark Up Close and Personal

Occurred on May 5, 2018 / Tairua, Coromandel, New Zealand

Info from Licensor: "I was about to jump in the water to swim with this Mako shark, and this is the welcome we get. Mako sharks are the fastest and most unpredictable shark in the sea, but they are also threatened with extinction due to commercial and recreational overfishing. The aim of the game here is to get in the water, cageless, to show people what sharks really are and change people's perspectives through stimulating visual imagery like this, laced with scientific information."
