Swimming With Sharks in the Bahamas Outer Islands

For those who have been, it's hard to argue that the Outer Islands of the Bahamas aren't some of the most beautiful in the Caribbean. Unfortunately, that's not the scene you get at popular Nassau. So, we hopped on a high speed boat with Powerboat Adventures and they took us on an hour boat ride to a private island where the scenery was fantastic. While we were they, they chummed up a ton of sharks and some rays and proceeded to feed them to get them riled up for tourists. With the water about three feet deep, Mr. Adventure (me) jumped in, strapped on a snorkel and filmed the entire gig. As you can see I did get bit, but did get head butted by a few sharks and rays. Not smart, I know, but a priceless experience!
