I didn’t hear that there were sharks near the shore, turtles in Side
I saw, in general, there are sharks in the Mediterranean Sea, but I haven’t heard about man-eating sharks. There are sharks in the Black Sea,
katrans are called, but they refuse people.

So what is it now, do not go to the sea at all ?!
By the way, dozens more people drown every year because of drunkenness than from shark attacks. But we keep drinking.
And how many thousands of people die on the roads, even observing all the rules of the road. And yet we go outside.
I think that if there is less fear, then much less bad things will happen.
And in Turkey - well-oh-oh! ...

Sharks are found in all the seas of Turkey, and sharks come to the Aegean Sea to give birth to offspring. I read on this site that people have personally seen fins not far from the shore. I haven't heard of any attacks yet.

Katran is too small to eat you. But the fact that in Egypt you can not swim after sunset, was a revelation, barracuda, however. In Turkey, this disgrace is not. Float boldly at any time of the day.

There are sharks in all the seas... But after sunset it's better not to take risks - not to swim... Look at the foreigners - they never go far into the sea, but only flounder near the coast and after 6 hours they are never at sea...

Again! Man-eating sharks are considered a rarity, near Turkey I have not heard about the attack of man-eating sharks at all,
there are only a few species of them and their habitat is not near Turkey. You can find out more precisely through Wikipedia if
who is interested.

There are sharks, but so far you should not be afraid of them. They've been avoiding us for now.

That's why it is the sea, so that there are fish in it, you are afraid, so go to the Dead - there are definitely no sharks there. In general, to be afraid of wolves - do not go into the forest! Sit at home and chill. People won’t stop going to the oceans because of sharks. Lu-la-la is right, it’s good in Turkey, and in Egypt too (here the political situation in the Arab world will calm down, and go)

there are sharks, but it's more appropriate to ask "do they attack"

There are 46 species of sharks in the Mediterranean Sea, 15 of them are considered dangerous. The most dangerous is the white shark, but there are few of them left, they are dying out, they are hunted, they do not swim close to the shores, they prefer cleaner and deeper places. Sometimes people themselves provoke an attack.

If you try to compile a kind of anti-rating of places where a meeting with a man-eating shark is most likely, you get something like this:
1. Florida
2 California
3. Australia
4. Hawaii
5. South Africa
6 Caribbean Sea
7. Bahamas
8. Red and Mediterranean Seas

There are sharks, but in Turkey I have not heard that they attack. They do not approach the shore and are even more afraid of us than we are of them u003d))

Large sharks were even seen in Cherny (including, according to rumors, they found their victims, bitten dolphins and seals, and saw shark fins in the bays), and you are talking about a much more lively Mediterranean verb).
For reference, it has been scientifically established that the aggressiveness of sharks towards people is highly dependent on the average annual water temperature).
If it is less than + 18, then most species do not specifically hunt people, perhaps eating in cold waters of people is not beneficial from an energy point of view)), there is little meat and fat) compared to a seal).
However, these data should not lull you to sleep, due to warming, white sharks begin to migrate to northern waters that they have not mastered before, incl. into the Mediterranean Sea, where, according to rumor, hammerhead sharks, which were previously quite numerous, were practically replaced).
So if I were you, I wouldn’t even swim in the Crimea in the twilight of both evening and morning)).
But there are a lot of dangerous jellyfish like Portuguese boats, get in blindly - it won’t seem enough))
