    DIVERS EXPERIENCES

    What is it like to meet a shark?

    When a shark appears underwater, the moment stays with you. But what do we see — and how does the shark respond to us? Danka Koteková will introduce you to a world she has explored for many years. Join us for an evening of personal experiences, photographs and stories of encounters between people and sharks.

    What their behaviour can tell us

    Sharks feature in dramatic films and divers’ stories alike. We will explore them through real encounters, observations and experiences of their responses to people.
