Discover Redondo, Washington: The Bluntnose Sixgill Shark Capital of the World!

Join us as we dive deep into the waters of Puget Sound to encounter the mysterious Bluntnose Sixgill Sharks (Hexanchus griseus) – one of the oldest species of sharks, often referred to as "living fossils." These massive predators, reaching up to 20 feet in length, typically dwell in deep, dark waters but are increasingly being spotted in the shallows of Redondo, attracting divers from across the globe!

In this video, we explore the history of Redondo Beach as a hotspot for Sixgill Shark sightings, dive alongside local and international divers, and take you into the depths where these elusive creatures lurk. We’ll also discuss the ethical debate around baiting the sharks, the impact on the local dive community, and why some instructors are concerned about the growing attention on Redondo.

🦈 Learn how you can help: Submit your photos to sixgillsharks.org to aid in tracking and identifying these sharks, fostering conservation efforts. Discover why photographing tails, fins, and body parts is more helpful than traditional face shots for identifying individual sharks.
