Tiger sharks are large, powerful, and curious marine predators. They can grow up to 5 meters long and weigh over 900 kg. Despite their scary reputation, they mostly eat fish, sea turtles, and even non-food items like license plates. Experienced divers can safely encounter them in areas like Tiger Beach, Bahamas, and Cocos Island, Costa Rica. Understanding their behavior and respecting these sharks can lead to thrilling diving experiences.
