A real version of "fishing" experience, the sharks here don't bite.

Nothing is more exciting than swimming with sharks and manta rays while on vacation in Bora Bora. The feeling of being surrounded by fish in the crystal clear shallows is so wonderful that you can't help but immerse yourself in it. There are so many manta rays here that they always surround tourists, seemingly seeking a gentle touch all the time. Interacting with manta rays is relatively simple, but sharks bring a completely different experience. When I saw the shark swimming slowly towards me, I felt a little nervous. After all, they are always depicted in movies and books as ferocious and terrifying ocean predators. Will you be bitten by them? However, what surprised me was that the shark's little eyes were so dull that it made people smile. Where are the evil spirits, where are the bloody mouths? Local friends told me that the sharks here do not bite, so perhaps our fear of them is unnecessary. Swimming in these warm waters are often lemon sharks and blacktip reef sharks (blacktips). They are not large in size, probably because of this, even if they want to attack humans, they have no choice but to give up. Rather than being hunters in the ocean, they are more like "pets" that have adapted to coexist harmoniously with humans. This interaction with the shark was deeply meaningful to me. In the shallows, I was able to observe these scary-looking but rather cute creatures more closely. They are not a symbol of cruelty as people say, but are closer to a friendly part of nature. The experience of swimming with sharks made me reflect: Are our stereotypes of creatures so ingrained that we miss their true nature?
