I have this thing about sharks.

Are there any? I just started swimming around and I need to know how scared to be.

Thanks!

There are sharks, but they aren't physical objects. You can't hit them and they don't bite you.

[stellak]

Thanks for the info. I will now swim without looking over my shoulder all the time!

[DaFrenk]

Yeah, I ran into those evil squids hoping that they would do CJ harm (like in Michael Crichton's Sphere) but they're just not solid.
Pitty, but anyways cool that there is some sort of sea-life.

I havn't found any sharks yet. I've found about 5 dolphins.

[F-s-X]

The only large sea animals I have seen is turtle's and and dolphins.

Really? Where can you find one? I really haven't spent much time in the sea.

I swim in los santos verona beach and i get a boat wery long in los santos/san andreas i get off into boat and swim
down and i see wery Big shark and escaped in boat

[GTA_kev]

huh? that's odd I've never seen a shark yet.

[Sierra]

I've looked around los santos beach area and can't find any sharks, seen plenty of dolphins, turtles and star fish etc.. Are the sharks bigger than the dolphins?

[samadriel]

I'm thinking the 'shark-spotters' here are actually referring to the dolphin... I've done tons of swimming and not seen any sharks distinct from the dolphin, but they could be out there I guess.

[Sergeant]

I get "no water"code and samething special happened i see all of the fish in sky
Are sam1 too thisone happen?

[stellak]

I've been spending time in the water trying to finish Farewell, My Love. I keep overshooting one section and landing in the drink... so frustrating. Kinda cool, though, sailing through the air and landing with a big splash and SURVIVING!!!!

Anyway, so far I have seen schools of fish, groups of jellyfish, turtles, and one dolphin.

I remember sharks, though, in Vice City, so I was running a little scared of those guys showing up outta nowhere.

Glad to know I will not be replaying any scenes from "Jaws". Life in San Andreas is exciting enough without swimming for your life from Bruce the Shark!

And all this activity is now paying off, btw, because CJ is now skinny and can date Helena. Hope this is worth it...

I've seen seals in Vice City


(PS: If you're still stuck on that mission use the guide in my sig)

Never seen any sharks in the water - a screenshot would convince me, otherwise...

I swam into the jellyfish too, thinking they would cause some minor health damage, but nothing. Oh well, can't have R* think of every little detail I suppose.

Aha, a shark mod

[BlOoDStReAm101]

yep..... a shark mod.......

ps: there is no sharks in SA only when u download the mod for it in PC

[stellak]

Thanks for the offer, RvdVit, but I finished up the Farewell, My Love race finally and am now in San Fierro. Yay! I eventually followed the general GTA rule of driving fast but carefully, staying on the road, and letting the other drivers make their mistakes, allowing me to win.

And you can bet I will NOT be loading up the ol' shark mod!!

I was swimming in a river near Leafy Hollow tonight (went off on a failed bid for that darned courier) and that was very cool. Nice wooden bridge and the water was brownish but clear underwater, with jellyfish and other stuff, and NO sharks...

San Fierro is nice after all those days out in the woods. I bought a new shirt at Zip.

A mate of mine said he saw a shark in the game without a mod, but I think he could be someone who mistakes a dolphin for a shark. Anyway...

I like the swimming feature of SA; it's something I wanted the most since GTA III. I like getting a sheriff's vehicle to follow me at high speed, then head for the nearest river - I'm glad peds don't swim

I really like the different areas of the SA state, too: ghetto, city, woodland, another city, desert, desert city. Lots of interesting places to hang out and wander around in, jump in, jump off and over
