Key Points

• Avoid fishing boats

• Swimming in the morning or night are the most dangerous times to swim

• Sharks have extreme senses of smell, so don't pee, bleed, or excrete any other bodily fluids

• If you see a shark, alert people nearby (especially authority figures) and get out of the water

• Remain calm and do not splash around, as this will excite the shark

• Maintain eye contact with the shark

• If a shark is going to attack you, make yourself as big as possible

• If a shark is not going to attack you, make yourself as small as possible by rolling into a ball

• Do not play dead

• Make sure the shark can not get in one of your blind spots

• Slowly back away
