"Realm of the Sharks"

Both Cocos and Mapelo Islands in the Eastern Pacific Ocean are home
to an abundance of marine animals, including numerous species of
sharks, rays, dolphins and whales. Cocos Island is some 300 miles
southwest of Costa Rica, and has been designated a Marine Park and
World Heritage Site by Costa Rica. Malpelo Island is a little over
300 miles off the coast of Colombia and is designated as a
Colombian Fauna and Flora Sanctuary, and marine protected area. The
waters off both islands are considered by divers to be among the
most exciting areas in the world for big animal sightings. The
immense schools of Hammerhead Sharks that gather in these waters
leave divers awestruck. The biodiversity is rich and vulnerable.
Join Shawn Heinrichs as he takes us there to experience the
magnificence of these animals and many other marine animals that
abide in the rich waters surrounding the islands of Cocos and
Malpelo. Shawn Heinrichs is a conservation filmmaker based in
