H2Open Magazine will provide an in-depth report on sharks’ relationship with open water swimmers in its next issue.

As Editor Simon Griffiths writes “English Channel swimmers face many obstacles but not usually sharks. But swimmers elsewhere do, and these refined hunting machines strike fear into the hearts of many. Sadly this means they are often hunted down and killed, and if there’s one predator more dangerous than sharks, it’s man. Next issue we take a closer look at these amazing creatures.”
