OK, I have a question.....I've been mulling over the idea of a trip for next winter to Gulf Shores just to escape the miserable weather that is a given for the winter time here. I am hoping to do some diving and was curious as to what there is to dive on down there? Are there wrecks? I don't want to bother diving if there aren't wrecks, cause if I want to just swim along a featureless bottom, I'll go to the local pool.
Also something that got brought up when I was talking to a buddy of mine who dives was as soon as I said Gulf Shores his response was "bull sharks". Apparently there was a rather brutal attack down there and according to a marine biologist that was interviewed on the program my friend saw said that Gulf Shores and the surrounding area are thick with bull sharks and that there have been "several" attacks in recent years. Maybe someone who dives the area could further clarify this for me.
