10 Tips for Avoiding Shark Bites*:
Do not swim at dusk, dawn or night. Sharks are most active during these times.
Avoid murky or unclean water. Sharks will be more likely to mistake you for prey and you will be less likely to see it coming.
Do not swim, dive or surf alone. Sharks are more likely to bite a single person. Also swim near a lifeguard so help is near by, should you need it.
Avoid excessive splashing and bringing pets in the water. Erratic movements portray distress and can attract sharks.
Do not enter the water if you are bleeding, do not bring
or bleeding fish into the water and avoid areas where fishing is occurring. Sharks have great senses and can detect the slightest hint of blood.
Do not wear jewelry or shiny bathing suits. Glistening light looks like fish scales to a shark’s eye.
Avoid wearing brightly colored suits or having an uneven tan line. Sharks see contrast well.
If in an areas with a lot of sharks, try to remain vertical. This prevents you from looking like a seal and other larger prey.
Stay close to shore and avoid going near steep drop-offs and channel openings. Prey species and sharks congregate in these locations.
Remember that when entering the ocean, you are entering the shark’s environment and these wild animals must be treated with caution.

Der für mich wichtigste Punkt auf der Liste ist unterstrichen. Wichtig dabei, schneller schwimmen als der neben Dir
