Don't be jellyous, just GO!
Too late. They're booked solid for this year.
But I'm trying Roatan for the first time in a few weeks so I can't really complain.
But I do love those tigers.

May be a curious nibble.
Yes, you got to keep eyes on Tiger Sharks otherwise….

As yuo can see in the video the diver with the close call is only paying attention to the action on the baitbox. I've seen plenty of that and had to warn more than a few people a Tiger is sneaking up behind them. I always end up with a rash on my neck from my wetsuit rubbing on it from turning my head round keeping an eye on all the sharks which can keep you pretty busy when their is seven of 'em swimming round.

Yes, those Tiger Sharks like to sneak in behind you. I experienced it once in Cocos. As I swam along the wall of Submerged Rock dive site, I felt a bit uneasy and happened to look to my right, there it was a Tiger Shark on my right shoulder. It swam away as soon as I pointed my camera to it, as shown below.
We had our back against Manuelita Outside wall, when a big mama Tiger Shark came out of no where.
