"You're gonna need a bigger boat"


It's not often you get to swim with sharks but at Compass Cay there are about ten "tame" nurse sharks who hang out around the dock. Sure they don't really have teeth and would probably only give you a really nasty hickey but they are also responsible for many attacks on humans ("dude, where did you get that hickey?") because humans treat them as harmless.



What is not so harmless is the 8 ft lemon shark that came by the last two nights we were there. It looked pissed and ready to eat something... such as a fleshy soft 15 lb baby. We kept her indoors at night.
