Didn't know whale sharks were in the gulf and that close to the beach.

Saw one at the "Buffalo Barge" fishing reef 8 mi. south of Fort Morgan in 1988.

I can't speak about whale sharks, but I used to fly helicopters out of Mobile Regional, and during one flight from Mobile to Destin I must have seen 50+ sharks right on the beach, some within yards of swimmers.

It actually makes me feel safer, knowing if there are that many sharks and no shark attacks it must be safe.
