    Are you ready to jump in and swim with one of the ocean’s top predators?

    If you have always wanted to swim with sharks, then Discovery Cove has once again got you covered.

    The park’s shark swim program is reopening at a limited capacity with new health and safety measures put in place to keep guests and trainers protected from the coronavirus during their experience.

    The modified program allows visitors to learn about several species of sharks as they swim alongside them in The Grand Reef.

    To maintain safety, the experience will be limited to no more than two parties per session and guests will be seated the proper distance apart during training.

    Meet Hamna – an aspiring physiotherapist and competitive swimmer from the Maldives. As a student, Hamna is beginning to focus on her future prospects and career path in sports therapy. However, there are limited opportunities to study sports science in her country.

    Undertaking work experience within a sports rehabilitation centre in the Maldives has been very helpful in guiding Hamna to achieve her future goals. It has given her the knowledge necessary to narrow the focus of her studies which will assist her in fulfilling her aspirations.

    Reelmedia worked alongside UNICEF to document Hamna’s journey, highlighting the power and value of work experience. Her motivation and drive to overcome educational obstacles, and her passion to pursue her dream is inspiring, and a positive example of overcoming adversity to achieve success.
