Basking sharks are meat eaters they love to eat little children from ages 1-18 and swim around slowly with their mouths wide open. They are larger than the great white and are of a gray colour.
The great white eats things like seals and have a mouth full of impressive teeth the jaws of which they can telescope outwards. They are a very active swimmer and are paler in colour.
Addendum: All the above is correct except the part about basking sharks being meat eaters. They are plankton eaters.
