Description: The Blacktip sharks, also known as Carcharhinus limbatus, are fascinating creatures that inhabit the warm waters of tropical and subtropical seas. With an impressive size of up to 2.6 meters and a presence in depths of up to 30 meters, they are a sight to behold. This image captures two majestic Blacktip sharks at the Shark Beach. The Shark Beach is located near Walker's Cay, the Abaco Islands, at the northern edge of the Bahamas. Besides the Caribbean Reef Sharks, Blacktip sharks can often be spotted there.
