Spending time with these magnificent creatures in the blue. 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈
Tiger sharks are listed as “Near Threatened” due to targeted fishing for fins and meat, high bycatch mortality, and habitat loss from coastal development and pollution. Their slow reproductive rate makes recovery even harder.
Fuvahmulah is home to the largest known aggregation of tiger sharks. A reminder of how vital it is to protect these apex predators and the ecosystems they sustain. Thank you Pelagic Divers Fuvahmulah.
Let’s choose awe over fear and protection over exploitation. #saveoursharks

There’s a certain kind of magic in Fuvahmulah. In the kindness of its people, the friendships formed, and the wild beauty of the Indian ocean. Every dive, every laugh, every shared meal felt like a moment suspended in time. Forever grateful for this island, its incredible souls, and of course its tiger sharks. Until next time 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 #fuvahmulah #maldives #tigersharks #sharklovers #scuba #scubadiving
Whitney and I took a road trip to Convict Lake to join @cleanupthelake for some clean up dives. This lake looks beautiful and pristine on the surface but down below it was littered with trash. We pulled out almost 3k pounds of litter. Good times with an awesome crew. What an amazing organization to volunteer for and to be a part of. #scubadiving #scuba #cleanup #convictlake #sierranevadamountains
