  1. Actually around three to four oclock in the evening/ late afternoon is when most shark attacks occur around Hawaii.

  2. Colemans has it correct. Dusk and dawn.

    Although, there are plenty of sharks there and the potential exists for them to attack anytime.

  3. Um....lunchtime?

  4. As the sun is setting. GET OUT OF THE WATER and STAY OUT until the sun is out and bright!!!  Here's some more info.:

    Avoid swimming in waters with runoff (i.e. after a heavy rainfall) or sewage, or areas frequented by sport or commercial fisherman - Kewalo Basin was notoriously known for shark sightings due to bait being tossed off the boats and fish being cleaned nearby. Be careful when the ocean is murky - you can't see sharks (stealth hunters) coming. However they have senses that can detect you.

    Don't splash around unnecessarily - erratic movement signals injured marine life to a shark.

    Don't wear shiny jewelry - the reflected light resembles the sheen of fish scales.

    Do not enter the water if sharks are known to be present - common sense.

    Do not swim if you are actively bleeding (for women on their monthly cycles there are some precautions you can take)- sharks have an acute sense of smell and are attracted to blood and urine.

    Avoid swimming during darkness or twilight hours - that's when sharks seem most active (although this belief has been recently challenged). http://www.sailhawaii.com/sharks.htm

  5. dawn and dusk
