Florida is known for its beautiful beaches but also for frequent shark attacks. Learn how to stay safe in the water.
Avoid swimming during dawn or dusk when sharks are most active. Stick to populated areas with lifeguards.
Do not swim near schools of fish or seals, as these are common shark feeding grounds. Stay alert.
If you see a shark, remain calm and slowly back away. Do not thrash or make sudden movements.
Wearing shiny jewelry can attract sharks. Avoid wearing it while swimming in the ocean.
Always follow local advisories and warnings about shark sightings. Your safety is the top priority.
