According to a study conducted by the Florida Program for Shark Research at the Florida Museum of Natural History at Volusia County, Florida there seems to be a couple things that consistently show up when it comes to shark attacks in Florida:
The study, published in “Sharks and Their Relatives II,” found that sharks have the ability to see contrast in color and that the likelihood of a shark attack increases when there’s a new moon, swimmers are in 6 feet of water or less, on a Sunday and if they’re wearing a black-and-white swimsuit.
So maybe it best to surf midweek and leave your Volcom Bruce Annihilator Mod boardies at home the next time a surf calls for sharky waters.

Sounds like Moses was right.
