This is the moment some brave snorkellers took to the water surrounded by a dozen hungry sharks.<br /><br />In the clip, which was filmed earlier this month in the Bahamas, the 2.5-metre reef sharks swirl around the water looking for food, just inches from the snorkellers.<br /><br />Although it might look dangerous, the video was captured under the supervision of professionals and shark behaviour specialists who are taking part in a programme to promote shark conservation in the Bahamas.<br /><br />"Such beautiful creatures," said filmer Chad Sinden who owns a local dive centre.
