Securing new protections for over-exploited shark and ray species.
Working with dive volunteers year-round to remove and report marine litter from underwater environments and pushing for policy changes leading to marine debris prevention at national, regional, and international levels.
Leading and inspiring the next generation of Eco-divers and using the power of scuba to influence change.
Strengthening partnerships with conservation groups, government bodies, responsible corporations, and others committed to eliminating marine debris and protecting shark and ray species at risk.

July 9-10 Shark-Con 2016 Tampa, FL, solo show

Shark-Con 2016

The painter of Blue and Sharks exhibiting at the SharkCon in Tampa.

Event at the Florida Fair Grounds, Tampa. Saturday July 9th, 2016 from 9am-5pm & Sunday July 10th, 2016 from 10am-5pm.
SharkCon is an event that brings those who love the ocean together for a weekend of education and the fun of a Comic Con. SharkCon has something for everyone who loves the ocean. In the inaugural SharkCon we had experts (Sylvia Earle, Robert Hueter, Stuart Cove, Ellen Prager, Jim Abernethy, and more) give presentations that entertained and enlightened our guest to the wonders and plights of the ocean. We had water sports clinics to teach our attendees how to paddle board, kayak, surf and fish. The show had over 80 vendors from different areas of ocean fun (scuba, live aboards, charters, clothing, fishing, books, jewelry, fossils, paddle boards, vacation destinations, and much more). We had exhibits from the Florida Aquarium (animals, fossils, educational material), Mote Marine Laboratory Mobile exhibit, Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo (animals), SeaWorld (fossils, examples, learning materials, shark photo options, more), Sharks from Ocean Creations, a shark ride(like the bucking horse), children’s coloring tables, the Mascot from the Clearwater Threshers, Aquaman, a showing of Jaws at the Tampa Theater, and even more. All of our guests left after having been entertained, educated, and with a renewed passion to protect our oceans.

Feb 1 Boot Dusseldorf for Sharks Angels

Congrats to all the winners from the Mega lottery from Sam’s Tours held last week at the Boot Düsseldorf show in Germany. Big shout out to Judith Hoppe Tourism …Unlimited who made it all run smoothly. And special thanks to Marc Bauman, Vice President of Sam’s Tours, who was overwhelmed with the response: “Palau was the first country to establish a shark sanctuary and Sam’s Tours has always been very committed to conservation and shark protection. We are very pleased with the response to the lottery and are proud to be able to sponsor the valuable educational efforts of Shark Angels. We need to reach out to children at a young age in order to make them understand the importance of healthy oceans and healthy shark populations.”
