Hey shark fam, I’m flying in from India to US (Boston + Miami + LA) this October for just 2 weeks of work, and honestly my biggest dream is to finally see great white sharks. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for me 🙏 I don’t want to do cage diving, just hoping to see them from the boat.

Would love some help with: • What’s the usual cost for surface-only trips? • Any legit operators to book with (don’t wanna get scammed 😅)? • Any personal referrals / experiences you can share?

And if anyone here is planning a trip around that time and open to join in, that would make it even more awesome.

Thanks a ton in advance!

Saw at the Toronto aquarium! I'm thinking nurse shark because common in aquariums and I think I see those little whisker (not sure what they are, look like whiskers lmao) things, but I'm not 100% sure because I'm bad at looking at things and being able to tell what they are haha so what species of shark is this?
