O amante de mergulho e caça submarina Paulo Afonso, natural da ilha do Pico, nos Açores, tem uma conta no Instagram na qual partilha fotos das suas aventuras pelos mares que banham o arquipélago.

De entre muitos momentos de pesca, sempre com respeito pela fauna e flora dos mares que banham o arquipélago, há a destacar um encontro inesperado em que um tubarão-baleia lhe dá um “beijo”.

Whale Shark love. Whenever my good friends from @azores_fishing in São Miguel Island call with some kind of crazy storm mission in mind, I don’t ask many questions, I just hop on a plane as soon as possible and go there. That was exactly what happened just last week. With just short window of 3 days time before Hurricane Lorenzo hit Azores, we gathered a team and hurried out 60 NM already in some rough weather conditions to where the action was happening. I was briefed that we would be diving with Wale Sharks because large Bigeye tuna were hanging around them. I was like: “ok, cool...that sounds good.” But really, I had no idea of how cool crazy kind of action I was about to get into! These Sharks were huge and they were really holding lots of big tuna. But the thing I wasn’t expecting was the level of confidence and curiosity on these mellow giants, to the point of interfering with my hunting. And oh man, they had a thing for me! I guess it had to do with my wetsuit. @riffe_international it’s good to know the #riffe #digitekcamo wetsuit is an efficient attractor of the world's largest fish haha. #whaleshark #azores #adventure #spearfishing Thanks so much @gui_bruges for capturing this awkward moment 👊🏻 Music: AronChupa - Bad Water
