We went out on purpose to swim with Basking Sharks. We swam from the boat out to them and stopped where we thought was in their path - looks like we were right. About 5 sharks in the video but we could see loads more out to sea. They stayed around in huge numbers for about a week and then disappeared just as suddenly as they arrived.
If I do have the honour of bumping into a great white I will be sure to post it on Youtube.

With Global warming be careful not to have the honour of discovering Irelands first Great White!

The hard part is getting into the water, once you are in you just deal with the situation. Truly awesome!

I would love to do it,but I m not sure my nerves could handle the sight of those fins heading towards me.

Did you swim out to them or did they just appear while you were out swimming?
