Surfers were unaware of the bull shark swimming close by as it was captured on drone footage.

An awesome video presents a bull shark leisurely relishing the waves just a few meters away from a gathering of unaware surfers.

The drone video begins by showing a tranquil day in Jupiter, Florida, with tranquil waters and transparent water last Sunday.

Several surfers clearly took advantage of the dreamy weather and ventured out into the sea.

Unfortunately for them, a big bull shark had the same thought.

The animal can be seen making its way to shallower water before it is seen scarily close to a surfer waiting to take a wave.

In spite of the fact that the shark is just a few meters away from those in the sea, it never makes contact or is even noticed by the group.

The man who recorded the clip, Paul Dabill, 48, said: ‘It was energizing to see a large shark share the water with the surfers.

‘The ocean was serene and clear and there was a good swell coming in and a lot of surfers in the water.

‘Upon launching my drone, I quickly spotted a large bull shark very close to the shore.

‘I followed the shark with my drone as it approached a few surfers. Fortunately, the shark didn’t seem too interested in the surfers and kept doing its own thing.’

It is not uncommon to find bull sharks on the coastlines of beaches. They can weigh up to 200kgs and reach nearly 12 feet.

They are thought to be extremely dangerous and part of the species which are known to attack humans – alongside great whites and tiger sharks.

On Wednesday, footage came out of a fishing boat caught in the center of a shark feeding frenzy off the coast of Venice, Louisiana.

A video of the scene showed shark fins for a distance in the water as the frenzied predators devoured the prey.

Around a dozen sharks raced toward the boat as the bait ball attempted to hide under it.

The sharks were in such a craze that they splashed water onto the boat.
