As much as I enjoyed being out on the ocean in my buddy's tin can of a boat, I'm admittedly a bit frightened of the sea. Um, you know, the sharks and all. I'm serious, Jaws is one of the most effective sphincter-puckerers of a movie in the long term sense. That's ALL I think about when I swim in the ocean.
We have nice warm swimming water in our summer months but luckily it's not long enough a season to encourage sharks to make regular visits. In fact, most locals would (incorrectly)say we don't have any but in truth, they are out there but stick to the deep sea areas. They are sometimes hooked by tuna or deep sea sports fisherman. However we are lucky, they never come close to shore and we have never had a recorded attack in known history.
