Welcome to the Basking Shark Project
Reaching lengths of up to 11 metres, Basking Sharks are the largest fish in British waters. One of only three plankton-feeding shark species, these harmless giants reappear in our coastal waters each summer.
Their presence is often marked by their large dorsal fin, though watchers are often lucky enough to see Baskers breach - jumping clear of the water!
Don't forget to contact the Shark Trust if you see a Basking Shark - your sightings are crucial in helping understand and protect these magnificent animals!!!
 Check out the Shark Trust Code of Conduct which aims to ensure safe interaction between human and shark – safe for both humans and sharks!
