Thanks to great environment protection initiatives undertaken by activists, diving business and government in Fiji shark Reef now has very healthy population of bull sharks. Just decade ago it was very different with single shark sighting on the dive being regarded as huge success. Reef was overfished and sharks were regularly killed for their fins - as in other parts of the world. These days during high season of winter months it's not unusual to have 50+ sharks simultaneously on single dive.
Hopefully one day we can make "hammerhead sky" style picture there with bull sharks instead of hammerheads ! ^_^
