I am very reluctant to surf at sunset any more. Let me tell you my story.
.
It was on the West coast of South Africa, just north of Lambert’s Bay, after my sea fisheries inspector work was done for the day I paddled out into the setting sun at a beach break, to enjoy a grand 8 foot glassy swell. But the strangest thing happened. Just as I made it out to the back, the swell literally disappeared. The next set of waves was 6 foot, I thought I’d wait for the next 8 footer, the next set was 5 foot, the next 4, the next 3 and within two minutes the sea was just a cradle rocking, with a small little 1 foot ripple bumping onto the beach with a distant little shushing noise every now and then.
.
Against the setting sun the sea was dark and shadowy, black to glassy green, and I didn’t like being this far away from the breaking waves. I’ve always had an inkling that sharks would be disinclined to venture into the surf as a mild preference of theirs, but happy to cruise the calmer waters. Now I was alone, ‘all, all alone on a wide, wide sea’, about 450 feet from shore, on a gently breathing dark green ocean. I lifted my hands and feet out of the water, not out of fear but just as a sensible precaution as I’ve done many times.
.
As I lay there looking at the sun’s moving reflection, wondering whether to paddle in again, all of a sudden, directly in front of me and about 15 feet away, coming directly towards me, a long black fin rose up out of the water. It rose smoothly up, and up, and up with water rushing down it, for all the world like a submarine periscope rising up out of the sea - I could not see either side of it - shush-rush-shush-rush-dribble-pour-dribble with the sound of the water running off it. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Over 2 feet it rose into the air at a steady relaxed speed, and then started to sink again with a quiet bubbling as it went down. With the sun turning the water to liquid gold and the water below still a shadowy dark green I could see very little but I frantically looked left, right, left, right, back and all over again, but could not see a thing. My nerves were taut and I was mulling over whether to try and punch from the board as I waited for something that never came. I waited a good five minutes before I had the courage to dip a hand into the water, turn myself around and paddle tentatively and as gently as I could back to shore.
.
Every paddle sent a ripple through the ocean that I knew sharks could feel and strained my nerves to breaking point. The shore seemed so far away though... so I paddled a little more firmly… which would send a stronger signal… so I added a touch more speed... which sent an even stronger signal... In the end my nerve gave out on me and I paddled in a sprint for the last 50 meters. :)
Thanks for sharing! Always in my mind as a Cape Cod surfer on gloomy days.
Holy fawk! That would have me shitting myself.
@@ep9203 It was terrifying. I still wonder what it was. The part of the fin above water was literally 2 feet high. Maybe it was a curious shark, and when I saw it and moved my head and rocked my board it realised I wasn't a basking seal. Maybe it could see my head through the water. Also my board had a rainbow style pattern underneath so it would have looked poisonous. Or maybe it was a coincidence that it was heading right for me and it got a fright. The part that really mystifies me is why I saw nothing. Technically it's possible that if it swam straight under me I would not have seen it, I guess.
Man you are a story teller, the way you worded it is really good, you might actually be a talented writer, no shit. Felt like I was on that board shitting myself
@@janukov1c824 That's very nice of you to say! Thank you, I really appreciate that!! Yeah it was one of the scariest experiences of my lfie. To this day I cannot figure out what happened.
