to which Ramsey subsequently issued a disclaimer on Instagram: “swimming unprotected with this species where it cannot see you very well is not a good idea… I don’t think swimming with white sharks unprotected is a good idea when they are feeding” Needless to say, not everyone was happy with Ramsey’s close contact: Please speak up in your own community and help support international efforts.” They need protection from targeted shark fishing for shark been soup and sport fishing. Shark populations around the planet are severely declined. I’ve been trying to get the bill re-introduced in Hawaii to ban the purposeful killing of sharks and rays and this just feels like the biggest sign to keep pushing forward for more protection for them.

While Ocean Ramsey might have made Deep Blue look harmless and friendly, she did go on to include a disclaimer in her next few posts, noting the dangers of diving near sharks without a cage. Ramsey can be seen swimming right alongside the behemoth shark occasionally accompanied by dolphins. On a recent dive off of the coast of Oahu, Hawaii, Ocean Ramsey encountered Deep Blue as the shark feasted on a dead whale carcass. Ramsey actively works to show that sharks aren't mindless beasts but rather intelligent animals vital to the ocean ecosystem.

Her goal is to spread awareness of sharks and the issues facing the massive creatures, posting on Instagram using the hashtag #HelpSaveSharks. Based in Hawaii, Ramsey has made headlines in the past after posting videos and photos of her swimming alongside massive sharks without a cage. Ocean Ramsey, the diver who spotted and photographed Deep Blue, is a popular Instagrammer and conservationist.
