There are so many bad stories of shark encounters... Im sure there are WAY more good encounters. What are your stories?
Besides bumping the occasional sandshark in the surf in San Diego, I had the great experience swimming above a large leopard shark in La Jolla. I was only a little snorkeler back then, about 13. I was snorkeling with my dad next to a cave at the cove when he got my attention and pointed to a "large" leopard shark. It was so pretty! As soon as it noticed us though, it swam as fast as it could towards the kelp.
I also have seen angel sharks, lots of rays, and some egg sacs. Nothing big or hungry.
