I have my first ocean area swim in Salem mass in 1 month. There are sharks south of here. Great white sharks.
Are you ever anxious about this type of wild life? Or should I just let it go?

yes - put on a black wetsuit and spalsh around like the stuff they hunt - zero chance of attack there.
its all chance. people say getting struck by lightening happens more frequent than shark attacks. but guess what? people get struck by lightening all the time. there have been an usually high number of big shark sightings in that area this year.
if you aren't comfortable with the idea of living things swimming around you then don't do it. however, if you do decide to do it - try and stay with someone or in a pack of people until the end and pull away.
