I used to like it too, right up until I turned 16.
We always went out ot the 2nd sandbar and got sand dollars to bleach. It's about 35ft, you can use a snorkle easily.
We came up to let some jellyfish move through and while we were treading water a 6ft shark swam right under us. Scared the living shit out of me.
Then I saw some photos of Orange Beach, Panama City, and one other during peak tourist season .. of people swimming pretty close to shore .. and all the large sharks swimming pretty close to them ..
It was enough to make me never get in it again. I'm not scared of much .. but sharks are pretty high om my list. I don't go past my calves anymore lol.
I feel like that was my warning from God telling me I was born to walk on land, not swim. So I don't. Except in pools .. since they don't have things with large sharp teethies that want to taste my leg.
I know a guy that works for the Coast Guard that patrols tybee island in helicopter. He said it is crazy how close sharks come to the swimmers.
Any chance of a ride along?
That would rock. We would have to take a boom box and either blare Flight of the Valkyrie or Jaws theme song as we swoop over the swimmers.

Bah, mostly it's only people that flap around like injured seals that get bit.
Sharks don't actually like the taste of humans, they just bite to find out what we are.
Yeah, that's where the pics I saw were from .. from the coast guard doing fly overs.
