The number one way to prevent shark attacks is to never swim where there are sharks. If that doesn’t work for you, keep reading.
“It’s Dark…The sharks are sleeping.”
No they’re not. They are hungry and want to eat you. Sharks are known to be more active at night.

“Hey, look how far from shore I can swim!”
Getting too far away from the beach makes it more difficult to get out of the water and escape the attack. Not to mention, most sharks attack when in the deeper water where they can circle, and then eat, you.
If sharks are known to be there, don’t be there.
If there is a sign that says, “DON’T SWIM HERE, OR YOU’LL BE EATEN BY TERRIBLE, EVIL SHARKS!” you should swim somewhere else. More often than not you will notice postings that advise you not to enter the water, because sharks have been seen in the area.

“Yo, Bra. Are there, like, you know, sharks in the water?
Ask the locals if sharks are known to be in the area. They probably know better than you do. Various spots are more known to be infested with sharks than others. The locals usually know fairly well whether or not a spot has a propensity to be shark infested.

Nothing says fun like swimming with friends!
Sharks are like bullies, they like to pick on loners. Only when they pick on you, you lose limbs.
“I just cut my foot on a rock…”
GET OUT OF THE WATER! You just spilled delicious shark buffet in the water. Sharks can smell blood from long distances and will be checking out the menu shortly.
Peeing In The Water
Who raised you? Thinking it’s ok to pee in water… did you know that sharks can smell pee and, because it is such an “interesting” smell, will be drawn to it.

“I like to swim with my bling bling!”
Sharks are like children, they like following shiny things. So, if you think looking good when you are surfing is worth a shark attack wear a lot of jewelry, otherwise leave the bling bling on the shore.
Preventing Shark Attacks – An overview on surviving
Basically, don’t pass a sign that says “SHARKS IN THE WATER HERE” to go swimming alone at night, as far out into the ocean as possible, with an open wound, wearing your most fashionable shiny jewelry, with a full bladder, after ignoring the locals who told you, “If you swim there, you’ll get eaten by the hungry sharks that are waiting for you.”
But don’t worry! The chances of getting attacked by a shark is only 1/11,500,000. The chance of being killed in that shark attack is only 1/264,100,000
