Award Winning ‘Wildsights Cruises’ - Monkey Mia - Shark Bay

Shark Bay is brimming with a huge variety of wildlife. All year round there are dolphins, dugongs and huge loggerhead and green turtles. In the warmer months they’re joined by sea snakes, sharks (our largest a 4.5 metre tiger shark), stingrays, flying fish and the weird long tom, a fish that skips across the sea. Very rare highlights are manta rays & whales

The best way to see this magnificent variety is on a superb cruise with Australia's only purist wildlife sailing specialist, ‘Wildsights Cruises’ aboard Monkey Mia’s nature boat, the internationally famous, awesome, 60’(18m) sailing catamaran, Shotover (yes there’s a toilet on board).

You can laze about and relax, or join in the fun of helping sail one of Australia's ocean racing legends. Lounge on a bean bag under the back deck shade awning. Soak up the sun on the huge trampoline nets. Chat with the crew, they know their stuff, including how to identify the dolphins for you. You'll learn how dolphins know who's around without seeing them, how they hunt with sound and live with sharks.

Your skippers have been here more than 25 years, with our licence to enter the world's most important, dolphin and tiger shark behavioural research site and the first Dugong Interaction Licence in Western Australia with restricted access to the Dugong Management Zone at Monkey Mia, you’ll be taken to the best spots to get great shots.

You'll be on an awesome wildlife cruise in one of the world's most important nature research sites, where scientists come from all over the globe to unravel the mysteries of the underwater world by putting:

video cameras on turtles
satellite tags on sharks
paint on dugong
tags on tiger sharks
drones to find stingrays
caution to sample sea snakes
traps to capture, count and release fish
digital cameras to catalogue dolphin fins
cages to monitor seabed development

Thanks to our association with the scientists you'll discover the relationships between the animals and their environment, the reason for the behaviour you're seeing, the facts behind myths, some wacky secrets.

Since we first commenced operation we’ve had the world’s leading dolphin and dugong behavioural scientists as advisors to ensure interactions are done in the best manner for the animals. This resulted in Shotover ’s cruises being the only cruises in the world scientifically proven to not have an effect on the dolphins.

Take this opportunity to lie back and relax or join in the fun of helping sail the boat. Experience the exhilaration of freedom under silent sail. Head off with the wind in your hair, the sun on your skin, a dash of salt spray, a smile on your face and oceans of wildlife.

You have a choice of fabulous cruises, including the world's first daily, scheduled ‘mermaid' (dugong) watching cruise and Australia’s Last Sunset Cruise. You’ll be awed by this spectacular, deserted piece of paradise, where Nature overwhelms.

We are Australia's first marine wildlife cruises to hold Advanced Ecotourism Accreditation and the first business in the region to become an Accredited Tourism Business.

The two different brochures show the cruise schedule changes during school holiday periods. To ensure you refer to the correct brochure check the school holiday dates in the calendar below.

Click above to check seasonal calendar. School holidays are shown in orange.

Shotover is primarily wind and solar powered and has virtually eliminated noise, air and water pollution, so your enjoyment isn’t affecting the animals or the planet.
Through space-age technology, the fridge is actually cooled by the sun!
The chemical-free toilet uses seawater and solar electricity to render toilet-waste bacteria-free.
Our safe, Australian-made, cleaning products are made from sustainable, natural ingredients, which are phosphate and nitrate free and not tested on animals.
We conserve fossil fuel by using extremely efficient, high-tech propellers coupled with low horsepower engines.
Our seldom used, small engines (approx 70hp compared with our competitor’s approx 570hp) average less than 2 litres of fuel per cruise
Fossil fuel is further conserved by technologically extending our oil changes to yearly.
Storing electricity in gel batteries eliminates the gassing and disposal problems of lead/acid batteries.

Plus, Quality Assurance Accreditation from the Australian Tourism Accreditation Authority ✔

On tour some of the stunning trees you'll meet are the life-saving Kurrajong tree, the endangered Sandalwood tree and the Acacia tree in it's many guises.

This was sheep country. Yet it's an area of only seasonal grass.You'll find out how the sheep survived. You'll also learn the ingenious method used to bring the sheep in for shearing.

The crew were so helpful and knowledgeable providing history of the area and the ecosystem. Also got to see dolphins dugongs turtles and a tiger shark! Highly recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning on the water. Liam was knowledgeable and funny and Charlotte was friendly & helpful. Highly recommended!

Fantastic helpful staff. Skipper has a wicked sense of humor. Saw dugon, dolphins, turtle great trip.

Catamaran was well appointed for a short cruise. Crew were very helpful. Free sunset cruise was a nice added bonus.

The crew are very knowledgeable about the area and provide a fun and educational commentary about the area and the abundance of wildlife. Their passion and dedication is evident in their conservation activities. Funds from the cruise go to high license fees and their contribution to helping maintain the dugong population in this pristine remote area. It’s a must for people of all ages.

We booked two trips. The sunset trip was amazing! A 2.5h Day trip was relaxing, we saw three groups of dolphins and learn a lot about wildlife.

What a wonderful way to spend both a morning and an evening! We had the most incredible time watching the dugongs and dolphins I can’t believe how much I learnt. We were so impressed by our captain Liam and his passion for the environment it is truly inspiring.

Great experience on both the cruises with the sunset one being the highlight of our holiday. The crew on both days were friendly and accommodating. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. Thank you Greg and team!!!

Absolutely magical day, we saw multiple dolphins, dugongs, turtles and shovel-nose rays! The cruise was so informative on the history of the bay, and the animals within it.

Commentary was excellent and we saw plenty of wildlife. Host was knowledgeable and I learnt a lot about dolphins, dugongs, sea turtles and sea birds. Got some wonderful photos.

Ultimate guide to Shark Bay

Travel & Touring | WA Destinations

By: Fleur Bainger

Sticking like a two-finger peace sign out the side of WA, is the World Heritage-listed area of Shark Bay.

A delight for nature-lovers, the area is riddled with marine life, from inquisitive dolphins and laid-back dugongs, to fine eating fish and - as the name suggests - 28 shark species. (Fret not though, no fatalities have ever been recorded).

Shark Bay encapsulates the town of Denham, the nearby communities of Monkey Mia and Hamelin Pool, as well as the jaw-droppingly beautiful national parks Francois Peron and Dirk Hartog.

With all that to explore, it’s time to start planning an escape to the westernmost point of Australia – Shark Bay has got it all.

At a glance

Distance from Perth	822 kilometres, or 9-10 hours' drive to Denham; 25 kilometres more to Monkey Mia
Why go?	To see friendly bottlenose dolphins, body roll down red sand dunes, hook fantastic eating fish, put your 4WD through its paces and walk on a beach made entirely of shells.
When to go	: Balmy days, gentle breeze, locals call this the best time to visit; ideal for swimming, boat cruising, camping, stargazing. : Sunny days in the mid-20s, cold nights hovering around 10 degrees and crisp morning winds; suited to kayaking, paddle boarding and hiking; wildflowers bloom from Aug-Oct; whales visit Aug-Sep.  : High temps, dry, very windy days; perfect for windsurfing and kiteboarding.
How long to stay	Spending five days to a week will give you enough time to tick everything off. Consider splitting your stay between Denham and Monkey Mia; Denham for day trips and adventure, Monkey Mia for staying-put, relaxation and play.
Need to know	About 55 kilometres from the Shark Bay turn-off is the Billabong Roadhouse - fill your tank here for some of the cheapest fuel in the state. Otherwise, the petrol station at Denham is fairly priced. Expect your phone signal to waver, even Telstra - beyond residential areas it often cuts out entirely. Denham has two small, independent supermarkets and a bakery doing fresh loaves, early breakfast and lunch; Monkey Mia has a mini mart. Denham beach is pet-friendly but pets are not allowed in any national parks in Shark Bay. Dogs must be on leads at all times when in the Monkey Mia Reserve and are excluded from the dolphin interaction zone. Fees apply for entry into many of Shark Bay’s national parks and reserves.
Fast facts	: 946 people in Denham  : Nhanda, Malgana and Yingkarta
Insider tip	Seek out art studio café, The Little Shop Well Worth a Visit, at the western end of Denham’s main street, Knight Terrace. There’s no name on the white, set-back house, just a red wheelbarrow and sign saying ‘open’. Café tables are adorned with knitting gear and bubble-blowing containers for those who fancy. Stay for a $5 coffee (it comes with a complimentary chocolate), delivered by octogenarian owner and resident potter, Mehalah.

Top things to see and do

See the red dunes of Big Lagoon with an Aboriginal guide

The inundated gypsum claypan known as Big Lagoon is home to Shark Bay’s most vibrant colours. Terracotta dunes meet white sand and crystalline, turquoise water. Local Yamatji-Malgana man, Darren “Capes” Capewell leads cultural kayaking tours across the lagoon, stopping at a seagull nesting site and kangaroo-dug waterholes, before encouraging body-rolls down the dunes. End the Wula Gura Nyinda eco adventure with local mullet on the barbeque. Big Lagoon also has good camping facilities, including raised tent decks.

Visit a remote coffee van

Stop in at Little Lagoon and grab a hot drink from the cute Coffee Mia coffee van. Its outdoor setting of patterned rugs, covered milk crate stools and upbeat tunes is delightfully unexpected. They do espresso, teas, chai, hot chocolate and toasties as well as kayak and paddleboard hire until noon most days. Stonefish lurk in Little Lagoon, so if you want to enjoy the water, wear wading shoes and shuffle to avoid a painful sting.

Gaze over endless water at Eagle Bluff

As far as ocean lookouts go, Eagle Bluff is rather impressive. A steel walking platform edges a cliff, delivering views of aquamarine water edging a small island and salmon-pink sandy bluffs, while the seagrass-rich navy ocean extends to the horizon. It’s 20 kilometres from Denham.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bec & Gary ↠ Travel & Vanlife (@we_who_roam) on Oct 18, 2019 at 3:29am PDT

Splurge on a scenic flight

Seeing the dramatic colours of Shark Bay from the air is worth raiding your pockets for. Take a scenic flight with Shark Bay Aviation over the reds, whites and blues of Big Lagoon and Francois Peron National Park, or be wowed by the Zuydorp Cliffs and the southern end of Dirk Hartog Island, or go all out on a trip that wraps in all that, plus Steep Point and Cape Inscription.

See sharks fed at Ocean Park Aquarium

Far from a theme-park experience, education-focused Ocean Park Aquarium is home to open tanks and glassy displays where local sea life such as turtles, sea snakes, stone fish and stingrays are exhibited and rescue creatures are rehabilitated. The main drawcard is the daily shark feeding, which happens at the end of every guided, hour-long tour, though locals also rave about the coffee (the restaurant’s open kebab, with lamb sourced from a local station, is also pretty good). The park is 10 kilometres out of Denham.

Relax aboard a sunset cruise at Monkey Mia

As the sun paints Shark Bay’s skies crimson, where better to watch it than on a glamorous catamaran? Join a sunset cruise and chances are, you’ll also spot the region’s marine life, be it dolphins, dugongs, turtles, sharks or even sea snakes. Day cruises are also available.

Walk along Shell Beach and eyeball the stromatolites

Let’s be honest: visually, Shell Beach has wow-factor, with its 10-metre deep, button-sized white cockle shells stretching for 60 kilometres. Plus, the water in the bay is so hyper-saline, you float. But learn a little about the nearby Hamelin Pool’s famed stromatolites and you’ll have a whole new appreciation for these cauliflower-like, underwater stumps. The still-living stromatolites in the Marine Nature Reserve are estimated to be 3,000 years old. Their predecessors, some 3.5 billion years back, are believed to be responsible for kick-starting life on Earth: when the micro-organisms they’re made up of released oxygen, it created conditions for more complex life forms to evolve. Seen through informed eyes, the stromatolites are pretty amazing. They’re found along a 200-metre boardwalk beside Hamelin Pool Caravan Park.

Watch the dolphins at Monkey Mia

This is the year-round hook that pulls most visitors to Shark Bay. Since the 60’s, wild dolphins have been visiting the shallows at Monkey Mia’s main beach, originally fed by a fisherman’s wife. Now, park rangers offer fish to the cetaceans while providing an informative, conservation-oriented talk to onlookers. Usually, less than a handful of dolphins come to shore around 7:30am, 8:30am and 9:30am, although they may be seen throughout the day; make sure you look beyond the interaction area as you may spot pods fishing in the deep or a mother and calf playing only 20 metres out. We recommend watching the interaction from the jetty, where elevated views are aided by having the sun at your back; beach viewers tend to endure sun-glare and crowding. A Monkey Mia day permit includes the dolphin experience.

Visit Dirk Hartog Island

Take the Steep Point barge across to Dirk Hartog Island - a raw, rugged isle inhabited by a family of five, who run an eco lodge, ocean villa and homestead campground, as well as tours. Get fully cared for, opt for supported camping or properly rough it at any of the island’s ultra-basic national park campsites. Strap in for a self-led 4WD adventure through empty dunes, to blowholes, past secluded beaches and fishing hotspots to Cape Inscription at the isle’s far tip, where Dutch merchant sailor Dirk Hartog marked his arrival more than 400 years ago.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dirk Hartog Island (@dirkhartogisland) on Aug 22, 2017 at 3:45pm PDT

Red emperor, pink snapper, mackerel, squid and more - Shark Bay is fishing heaven. There are numerous spots to throw in a line for recreational fishers, just be sure to check marine protection zones before baiting up. Back in your boat at Denham or Monkey Mia’s ramps (with more options for smaller boats), or alternately, join a charter boat with locals guiding you to top eating fish.

4WD adventure into Francois Peron National Park

Your first stop in the national park is Peron Homestead Precinct (accessible by 2WD). It’s a 1900’s sheep station turned self-exploratory heritage site that’s best known for its spring-fed outdoor hot tub (currently closed due to Covid-19). Funny aside: the homestead’s shearing shed was relocated there from Denham after too many shearers were distracted by the town pub. If you have a 4WD, let down your tyres at the deflating station, then continue on to Big Lagoon and Cape Peron, with both sites equipped with red sand, picnic tables and bush toilets. Watch for marine life from Skipjack Point Lookout or follow the 1.5-kilometre clifftop Wanamalu Walk Trail from Skipjack to Cape Peron.

What to pack

In summer, you can get away with shorts, t-shirts and plenty of sunscreen; autumn and spring are much the same, but pack a jumper for nights. In winter, sunshine gives way to chilly evenings, so if you’re camping, bring plenty of warm bedding and wear layers beneath a heavy jacket and beanie. The wind keeps most mozzies away but bring spray for sandflies.

Getting around

You’ll need a car to get around Shark Bay - 2WD is fine but a 4WD is necessary to explore Dirk Hartog Island and Francois Peron National Park (although you can reach Peron Homestead Precinct in a 2WD). If you’re basing yourself in Denham or Monkey Mia, everything along the waterfront is walkable. If you fly from Perth, there’s car (and boat) hire available at the airport.

Travelling safely

Emus are a constant threat on Shark Bay’s roads, and at low light, kangaroos also emerge, so travel slowly - or not at all - during sundown and dawn. Adhere to local advice on 4WD tracks and make use of the tyre deflating and re-inflating equipment just outside Peron Homestead before you venture into Francois Peron National Park.

Sail among sharks and dugongs

{ 0 Comments }

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Shark Bay has the largest and richest area of seagrass meadows in the world. This makes it home to the world’s largest population of dugongs, as well as a thriving population of sharks, turtles, whales, rays and dolphins. From your base in Denham, visit natural attractions like Shell Beach and the stomatolites in Hamelin Pool, and pop over to Monkey Mia to see dolphins swim off the beach. Don’t miss the last sunset on the continent as you sail the turquoise waters on a catamaran.

Length of Trip : 2-4 days, depending on what you plan to get up to.

Cost : Click here for the latest Monkey Mia sailing cruise prices with Wildsights

Best time to go : June to October

Wheelchair friendly : Contact operator to make arrangements

Family friendly : Yes

Where to eat : We enjoyed a couple great meals at the iconic Old Pub in Denham , attached to the Shark Bay Hotel.

Official Site : Visit Shark Bay Wildsights Wildlife Sailing Cruises

Where to Stay : We had a blast at The Shark Bay Hotel , a friendly local institution steps away from the beach, groceries and the best pub in Denham.

Getting There : Shark Bay is about a 9 and half hour drive from Perth. There is a local airport located 8km from Denham, and around 16km from Monkey Mia on the Monkey Mia Road, with several flights a week from Perth and also Exmouth.

Note from Robin : Although the road north is long, flat and hardly busy, watch out for some overzealous cops (we got the only speeding fine on our whole trip outside of Binnu, and we weren't even speeding). Shell Beach is remarkable, well worth the stop. The stars in this part of the world are fantastic. We found the dolphin encounter in Monkey Mia disappointing, which has everything to do with expectations and nothing to do with the dolphins. Definitely worth stopping at the Ocean Park Aquarium, especially if you're with kids. The living is fine on a morning or sunset sailing cruise in Shark Bay, and so are the dugongs!

Wooma is fitted with a fold out ladder at the stern of the vessel, allowing for easy entry back on to the boat after your snorkels or dives.

wavelength III

Fresh out of a refit in early 2023, we have Wavelength 3. A magnificent 53 foot (16m) Westcoaster, custom built in WA for the tourism charter industry. “Wave” caters for groups between 13 and 30 passengers and with plenty of space both on the lower deck, bow and in the elevated flybridge section you will be sure to find the right environment to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Wavelength has marine clears throughout to ensure you stay safe and dry and is an incredibly stable fibreglass monohull. This vessel is also equipped with a wet Marlin Board to allow easy access in and out of the water and a 3.5m RIB tender as a safety and transfer vessel.

Sea Sprinter

Sea sprinter is our boat that can do anything. Currently located over in Monkey Mia carrying out our Pearl Farm Tours, and soon to be our Taste of Shark Bay tours. This vessel can seat up to 45 passengers in comfortable seating throughout. It also has clears on all sides which provides complete protection from the elements. On the vessel there is a marine toilet.

Worried about getting on and off the boat? Sea Sprinter has a set of fold stairs built into the bow of the vessel. Which allows us to pick up passengers right from the beach.

IVECO 4X4 BUS

We have 2 of these buses in our fleet because we like them so much. With the capacity to sit 13 people comfortably, with 2 of those being up front with your driver. These buses are built to drive over anything Shark Bay has to offer.

In the winter season we ferry one of the busses to Dirk Hartog Island to run our island 4X4 tours, and the other stays in Denham to run Francois Peron National Park tours as well as the other 4×4 tours we offer. Just sit back and enjoy the ride, and let our guides take you on your 4×4 adventure through the Shark Bay World heritage Area.

September 2023

My husband and I went on the snorkeling trip to Egmont yesterday. We had a great time. The snorkeling spot they picked was great. Really was an enjoyable day and I would recommend the trip to friends. Professional, safe, fun...

This is our 2nd trip with this crew. Our family is from Iowa and this team never disappoints. So much to see and do. Highly recommended. Thanks for the great experience.

This was a great first time experience snorkeling! The captain extended our tour until we were able to see the dolphins. He is very knowledgeable and would even help people getting shells😁

Great time! The captain was fun, engaging, and had so much knowledge about the island and Florida! Definitely recommend!

Overall best snorkeling trip I have been on, great for anyone, beginners and couples especially. Boat trip was enjoyable and the island/snork. spot was much less busy than expected. John was awesome and on point, as well as being very knowledgeable and nice.

My wife and I took a trip with Captain John this past Saturday and had a wonderful time. The ruins of the gun batteries were so cool to scuba dive around, the fish were out in force, and the water temperature was perfect. Captain John was not only entertaining but also very knowledgeable about the surrounding shores and their histories.

We had a great time and getting to see the tortoises and dolphins were some of the highlights of our trip. We would highly recommend you check them out if you are thinking about snorkeling in this area!

This is the only shark tour in the USA and to our knowledge the only tour where guests do not get in the water to view the sharks. Delight in close-up views of sharks and a variety of other marine life. In this eco-friendly catamaran, travel through shallow waters to a location a few miles from shore, observing dolphins, stingrays, barracudas and native birds along the way. Bait is used to attract lemon, nurse and other types of sharks to the side of the boat. Learn all about Key West wildlife and enjoy complimentary soda, juice and chips throughout this family-friendly tour.

Description

Pass By: Key West Extreme Adventures Shark Tours, 245 Front St, Pier B, behind the Opal Key Resort, Florida 33040

After check-in, the Tiger Cat will cruise through Key West harbor on the way to the Key West National Wildlife Refuge. Here guests will see numerous sharks and a variety of wildlife including dolphin.

Stop At: Key West, Key West, Florida

Travel through shallow water close to mangrove islands as you make your way about 4 miles (6.4 km) away from shore to the shark viewing site. Along the way, keep your eyes open for dolphin, sea turtles, stingrays, barracudas, tarpon and an array of native birds. Listen to your experienced pilot discuss the delicate ecosystem of this area and its abundance of wildlife. Enjoy complimentary water, soda, juice — as well as the use of polarized sunglasses — during your trip.

When you arrive at the shark destination, get ready for an unforgettable experience! Your pilot will use bait to draw a host of sharks that swim right up to the boat so you and your family can observe them in safety and comfort. See numerous lemon and nurse sharks, and watch out for bull, black tip and hammerhead sharks during nearly one hour of shark viewing. Capture dramatic photos you can't wait to share with family and friends.

Compliance status

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation.

Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily while significantly reducing distractions.
Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone, and websites must be compatible with it.
Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys.

Video: Kayakers have close encounter with 14-foot shark near Half Moon Bay

By Dave Pehling

Updated on: August 12, 2024 / 6:01 PM PDT / CBS San Francisco

A couple of Bay Area kayakers had an unnerving close encounter with a large shark while fishing in Half Moon Bay last week that was captured on video.

Ian Walters works as a teacher at Oakland's Head-Royce School. He was filming his friend as they were out kayaking and fishing off Pillar Point Harbor north of Half Moon Bay and by famed big-wave surf spot Mavericks Beach last Tuesday when a shark started following his friend.

"You all right?" Walters is heard asking as he sees the sharks dorsal fin cutting through the water about 15 feet behind is friend's kayak.

"Yeah, I'm just gonna start moving in," his friend says in the video.

"I'm gonna follow you, ok?" Walters replies.

Speaking in an interview, Walters said realizes how lucky they were the shark didn't attack, but felt the experience was more surreal than scary.

"It followed my buddy for a couple minutes. We moved closer together and then we watched it circle back around and start following me," remembered Walters. "And we kind of led it off towards some seals and looked over our shoulders for another hour or two and everything was fine."

Walters shared his video with shark enthusiasts on the Internet. Commenters said the shark was likely a great white based on its size, which was about 14 feet long.

"I never thought in a million years I would get to experience one close up, you know?" said Walters. "I feel lucky to have done that and done that with a friend who could keep me calm and I could keep him calm. We tried to not bug it."

He says it may be a while before they go out kayaking again, but he definitely has a tale to share with his sixth-grade students.
