Calypsos divers on expedition in the Marquesas Islands explore the underwater riches around Thomasset Island, named Motu Nao in Marquisian, which means island sunk in the sea. Motu Nao is actually what remains of the tip of an island that lies forty meters below the surface today. A white-tipped reef shark cannot resist poking his nose into the swimmers peaceful tour of this watery land.
This is a juvenile silvertip shark (Carcharhinus albimarginatus) and not a whitetip shark.
