Petting the sharks in the Bahamas 🇧🇸 🦈

Oh you can’t believe your eyes when the boat gets closer to the island surrounded by crystal clear turquoise water and you see all the pigs running around and cooling down in the water. As soon as you step in the water they surround you and play with you. If you bring food make sure it’s something like bread as some people have been feeding them marshmallows and other things they can’t digest well. My highlight on that day besides the pigs was swimming with sharks in compass cay which was very fun until one got a little hungry and decided to bit me 🙂 I can not tell you the second of shock I felt when i saw this shark opening his mouth grabbing my hand. People always tell you when a shark attacks you you should stay calm. let me tell you in reality when it happens there is nothing like staying calm you completely freak out 😀 Some of you will remember my pic floating with them just shortly before one bit my finger as he misplaced my hand with food. My hand is okay again and has s a scar now in shark teeth shape that will forever remind me of that beautiful day in the exumas.It’s an amazing experience to swim with them and quite an adrenalin boost but consider even though they are usually calm they are still wild animals 🙂 Another stop we did was the iguana island where more than 4000 iguanas live free in wildlife. As soon as you walk along the beach you see them coming and be amazed how fast they can walk towards you besides the fact they look so lazy 🙂
