Ready to take the plunge? Shark Summer at Adventure Aquarium is back.
The shark-filled festival runs July 15 through August 18 and offers jaw-some activities, shows, behind-the-scenes tours and daily dives featuring the Scuba Tooth Fairy.
Event organizers said Shark Summer will highlight the importance of sharks because many species are considered endangered -including the great hammerhead shark, sand tiger shark and sandbar shark- and are at risk of extinction due to overfishing, climate change and habitat loss.
