Are you safe from sharks in Daytona Florida in waters 4 feet deep?

Sharks only need enough water to swim in - so you may be safe from larger sharks, but smaller ones will be perfectly capable of swimming in 4' deep water. You should always practice "shark safety" when swimming in waters that are home to sharks, for instance: - do not swim if you are bleeding - do not swim in cloudy waters where sharks may be hiding, such as around piers - do not swim near to where people are fishing (for more than just fear of sharks - you could get 'caught' yourself!!) - leave the water if wildlife in the water, such as fish, begin to behave strangely or erratically - leave the water if you spot a shark - always check with a lifeguard before you swim - do not swim alone
