![]() Deep Blue is no exception, sighted far from the coast of Mexico, where she was spotted in 2015 in late summer. The shark is lovingly known as Deep Blue, the video. During the winter months, Great Whites typically migrate from the western coasts of the US and Mexico towards the middle of the Pacific Ocean. A new video has emerged of what’s thought to be the world’s largest Great White Shark showing her teeth and brushing up against a diver. Great Whites are known to move around a great deal, covering thousands of miles in any given year. They are highly migratory, swimming an average of 36 miles a day. They hunt the swordfish found in the Gulf of Mexico but will eat nearly anything. They are the fastest swimming sharks on the planet, clocking in at speeds up to 60 mph (96 kph). Sightings of the massive Great White are very rare, with the last recorded sighting in 2015 off the Pacific Coast of Mexico. The Shortfin Mako Shark hunts in the deeper, warmer waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Measuring 20 feet in length, the female shark weighs upwards of 5,000 pounds. And this past week, what is believed to be the largest shark in the world was spotted off the coast of Hawaii and a well-known diver was there to capture the moment.ĭeep Blue is the name given to this 50-year-old Great White shark. Hawaii attracts sharks, including the Great White, every year. And while no doubt inviting, beachgoers often forget that they share the water with an abundance of marine life. In the latest video, Deep Blue is seen with two other females. There's a reason the Hawaiian Islands attract nearly 10 million visitors a year and it's primarily due to the stunning beaches and picturesque waters. Deep Blue is a 20-foot-long female great white that was first recorded in 2013 by shark researcher Mauricio Hoyos Padilla. ![]()
