Captain John Shark

"I be Captain John Greyson Shark, Gentleman Buccaneer roving the Seas Pillaging, Plundering, Swimming with and Saving Sharks. Yes I said swimming with them. You see, I make way to Jupiter now and then to swim with Bull Sharks in the winter. That be when the big females migrate in and, let me tell ye matey, they be a beautiful sight to see in that clear, blue Caribbean water. If ye want to have a gander for your onesy selves, my social media links be below where ye can see me Shark Dives.

Descending from a Florida Pioneer Family that settled in Tampa Bay in 1870, I be a Florida Native, aye. Being born and raised in the Old Buccaneer Port here, I developed a love of Sharks, Sea and all things Pyrate at an early age. Me Ventures have taken me from Tampa Bay to the Voodoo Haunted Shores of Ayiti to the Treasure Laden Islands of the Florida Keys to the High-Toned-and-Fancy-To-Do Shoals of Carolina and back. Now I be running Land-based Buccaneer Adventures on the Beautiful, Sandy Shores of St Pete Beach at the Sirata by Hilton, whilst sharing about Sharks and Shark Conservation!

Raise the Black - Save Sharks - Repeat!"

Captain John Shark's Buccaneer Adventures:

Buccaneer Adventures

I, Captain John Shark, have created Original, Land-based Buccaneer Adventures for Resorts and Corporate Events. Treasure Hunts, Crew Competitions, Be-a-Pyrate Photo Booth, Pyrate Greeter, Pirate Gatharrring and whatever other Jolly (Roger) fun I dream up. In addition to making new Buccaneers out of landlubbers, I be discussing Sharks, Shark Conservation, Pyrates and Beach Safety throughout me events as well. Every aspect of me Buccaneer Adventures be created by and run by me onesy self alone. They can be customized for various locales AND for adults. Since 2022, I have been proudly running Buccaneer Adventures monthly for guests at the Sirata Beach Resort by Hilton on beautiful St Pete Beach here in Tamparrr Bay. Ye can have a gander at my adventures in the video below!

Being Captain John SHARK, I LOVE Sharks, I be an avid Shark Conservationist and I can talk about Sharks all day matey. For over a decade I have Paddleboarded with Bull Sharks all over Tampa Bay and I SWIM with Bull Sharks in Jupiter every chance I get. Now, I be no schooled scientist or Shark Professional so the information I be sharing with my crews consists of a general overview of Sharks native to Tampa Bay, Shark Awareness, Shark Conservation Endeavors I support, Shark Diving Operations I be recommending and my personal observations of Bull Sharks as an amateur Shark Naturalist. To have a gander at me Bull Shark Diving videos, see my YouTube account link above.
