Oceanic Black Tip Shark - Carcharhinus limbatus

The Oceanic Blacktip shark - Carcharhinus limbatus, is a species of requiem shark, family Carcharhinidae. It is common to coastal tropical and subtropical waters around the world, including brackish habitats. Genetic analyses have revealed substantial variation within this species, with populations from the western Atlantic Ocean isolated and distinct from those in the rest of its range. The blacktip shark has a stout, fusiform body with a pointed snout, long gill slits, and no ridge between the dorsal fins. Most individuals have black tips or edges on the pectoral, dorsal, pelvic, and caudal fins. It usually attains a length of 1.5 m (4.9 ft).

We encounter many of them during a Sharks feeding dives. They are very curious and can be aggressive. One of them even took a bite at my fins, the guide saw it and punch the shark as it next pass by him, that was a scary but also hilarious encounter.
