I'm a Fish!
On Sunday, November 25th the divers on Pompano Dive Center's (Pompano Beach, Florida) boats the "Sea Dog" and "Sea Pup" were lucky enough to dive with a 25-30 foot whale shark right off of Hillsboro Inlet. The experience lasted for approximately an hour, and luckily there were several divers with cameras to provide both photographs and video of this potentially once in a lifetime experience!

Right on! It came up to our boat too! Needless to say this is an extremely rare occurrence in South Florida. One of our underwater video production companies, Video Dude Productions took some incredible video of this event. It is currently locate at this link Whale Shark in Pompano Beach - YouTube
