Lemon Sharks Close to Florida Shore Glide Over Colorful Reefs

Beautiful drone footage captures at least 10 lemon sharks swimming over colorful reefs off Stuart, Florida.

This video, shot by Joanna Steidle of Hampton Drones, shows the sharks swimming together on what she described to Storyful as a cloudy and windy day, during which “local surfers were out in full force.”

Steidle said, “Nearby surfers did not blink at their presence. Lemon sharks are not particularly aggressive, and aren’t considered much of a threat to people.”

However, she recommended that swimmers keep a careful distance to make sure the lemon sharks don’t feel threatened. “The ocean is their home, so please be respectful,” she said. Credit: Joanna Steidle via Storyful
