Reminder disturbing wildlife is an offence
A charity concerned with basking sharks is appealing to the public to follow its code of conduct, when coming into contact with the animal.
Reports of people swimming with the protected fish species have been brought to the attention of the Manx Basking Shark Watch, with numbers set to increase over the summer months.
