People don’t usually associate sharks with having a happy holiday… most people are scared of them because of the constant sensationalist news items about people getting killed. In fact the number of fatalities per year are less then 10 - worldwide. But did you know that an estimated 40 million sharks are killed every year? And that most of them are killed only for their fins? Yes, the rest of the shark is usually thrown back into the sea, sometimes still living, where they starve to death or drown. The fins are used for the Chinese delicacy of shark fin soup, which is becoming more and more popular as the Chinese middle class grows in size. Well if you want to have a truly exilirating holiday with a diving company that cares about shark and marine conservation you should check out Shark Diving International. They were founded in 1998 and have become the biggest shark diving operation in the USA.
