It is a shy fish but which can be approached because of its curiosity.
Be careful to don't make a sudden gesture when it is approaching!

To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
Some sharks can stay motionless on the sand (white tips reef sharks, nurse sharks, etc.).
These sharks don't have to swim to bring oxygen to their gills like other sharks (grey, hammerheads tc.)
Turtles are in economy mode when they are sleeping. If they are woken during night, they may not have enough air to return to surface.
So, please be careful during night dives!
