Low Risk of Shark Bites Explained
The likelihood of being bitten by a shark remains very low, with only 65 unprovoked bites globally in 2025, and fewer than 10 fatalities. Most bites occur in specific U.S. states, particularly Florida, known as the "Shark Bite Capital of the World." Safety tips include swimming with a buddy, staying nearshore, avoiding dawn or dusk swimming, and suppressing splashing. In case of a shark encounter, maintaining eye contact and targeting sensitive areas if attacked are recommended, but overall, sharks pose a minimal risk compared to other dangers.
