A Load of Bull!

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to be in the water with 7 Zambezi or Bull sharks off the coast of Southern Mozambique. This is late in the season for this species, and after battling with weather for a week, we finally hit the right day and conditions. SCUBA doesn't work very well when trying to get close to these creatures, so we freedive on them... For this reason we have to try and get them to within 12 - 15m from the surface to make this possible with the HD housings. Even then, its like swimming around with a 20l paint tin!
