Sharks AND gators... sounds like us Aussies would feel right at home there.

Well a lot of Brits like to vacation there and live there.

Doesn't it have the reputation of being where all the old people go to retire because of the beaches and great weather?

I have swam in the Atlantic, Northeast my whole life and never even thought of sharks. But they are here now. Nature wins every time. I can't believe a lot of my beaches allow surf Casters who actually are feeding these bastards. They reel in baby sharks all the time like they won a proze. Fucking idiots. Plenty of places to fish not near swimmers.

Hate to break it to ya, those sharks are there if they are fishing for them or not. Most beaches serve as basically an interstate exit for food while they travel up and down the coast. Beaches get painted as a manufactured attraction like Disney land but they are as full of unsafe things as one could imagine.
