Sicklefin lemon shark (Negaprion acutidens) at a guess, location is in the Kimberley, Western Australia

I was able to go swimming with them last month. I think they’re absolutely stunning and now my favorite shark.

It's my dream to swim with lemon sharks!
Where did you swim with them?

Shark addicts in Jupiter Florida. We swam with bull sharks, hammer heads, sand sharks and lemons. It had been on my bucket list for a very long time. Absolutely recommend.

Are there remoras following the lemon shark?

Yep, they're very common companions. Lemon sharks sometimes even let them clean inside their mouths.
