- Jean-Michel Cousteau invites you to embark on a breathtaking underwater voyage to discover the ultimate predator: the shark. Experience an astonishing up-close encounter in 3D with the Lions and Tigers of the Ocean.
- Research vessel and crew go around gathering data about sharks in a very unique way.
- The viewer witnesses a panorama of animals inhabiting the islands among the least known of the world: Galapagos, Guadalupe, Falkland and Midway.
- Actor Errol Flynn takes a group of scientists from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography on an expedition to the South Seas aboard his schooner, The Zaca.
- Off the coast of Baja, Mexico, 210 miles south of San Diego, California, a remote island serves as one of nature's dwindling sanctuaries to a fearsome ocean predator - the Great White Shark. In a race against time, eco-tourists and marine researchers from the United States and Mexico have forged a unique alliance to gather scientific data in the hopes of protecting these animals from potential slaughter. This is a countdown, a countdown to survival at Isla Guadalupe - the Island of the Great White Shark. With these opening words, RTSea Productions' documentary, Island of the Great White Shark, begins the first comprehensive examination of Isla Guadalupe, its population of great white sharks, and the ongoing scientific research taking place there. Several compelling concepts are brought together in this production: the wide range of research techniques being employed, the kinds of data being gathered, the unusual working relationship between shark researchers and eco-tourism operations, and of course the sharks - both feared and misunderstood by the general public while also highly vulnerable and threatened with possible extinction.
- A hundred sixty miles off the coast of Baja California, a team of world-class anglers will land one of the most challenging fish imaginable: the great white shark. Unlike any other catch ever attempted, they'll lift an SUV-sized shark onto a platform, mount a long-lasting tracking tag by hand, take measurements and DNA samples, and release it unharmed... all within minutes. Marine biologist Dr. Michael Domeier uses advanced tracking devices to help uncover how this predator lives, with the ultimate goal of conserving and protecting this endangered species.
- Marine Biologist Luke Tipple has a dream, to explore the oceans and dive with sharks, yet he is frustrated with the increasing commercial nature of his Shark Diving adventures. Venturing outside the cage to swim with 16 foot Great White Sharks relieves the stress of ordinary life on the surface, but it isn't enough to satisfy his need for adventure. A chance discovery of a Great White Shark aggregation site in a remote corner of the planet is the start of an epic journey across the globe as this young, and sometimes headstrong marine biologist prepares for the ultimate challenge of being the first human to encounter these truly wild carnivores. Shot on location in the crystal blue waters of Guadalupe Island, Mexico, home to the best Great White Shark diving on the planet, this docu-drama is a blend of reality and dramatic performance in this exploration into pro-shark film-making, without the hype.
- Fishing adventures are presented. Marlin fishing, one of the world's most exciting sports fishing activities, can be had in among other places in the waters between the California mainland and Catalina Island. It may take up to 10 hours to reel in a marlin. The result of the battle may be heartbreaking to the fisherman if lost after an extended battle. In the next segment, two young men in a small rowboat in open Mexican waters are jigging for a hammerhead shark. Once they hook the shark, they try the dangerous maneuver of bringing the still live shark on board. Back to southern California, others are trolling for more sharks. The 721 pound shark they hook causes some logistical problems, but none that are insurmountable to bringing it back to shore. Moving to inland Oregon waters, commercial native fishermen are catching chinook as they migrate upstream. Catching the fish is as much a challenge as the fish getting past the rapids and falls is. And moving off the coast of Baja, other commercial fisherman are chumming for tuna. Although the fish are plentiful, catching them is hard and dangerous work.
- From the movie Jaws (1975), great white sharks have long been depicted as dangerous man-hunting monsters. In this expedition, the environmental correspondent of Fusion and Univision, Nicolas Ibarguen, will work to dispel these myths and approach these animals from a different angle, one much more rigorous, but no less entertaining: the true role of great white sharks in today's oceans. Ibarguen joins world renown white shark expert Mauricio Hoyos, conservationist Ocean Ramsey, and the filmmaker Rob Stewart to do a set of submersions and explorations in Isla Guadalupe (Baja California, Mexico), one of the world's top destinations to dive with the king of the ocean.
- Overfishing, bycatch and especially the sake of killing for killing, have been the great white shark to the brink of extinction.
- I am going to tell a story like you have never heard before. It could be the story of a man brave enough to swim with sharks. Or it could be the story of sharks: gentle at times, ferocious at others, who accept a man their waters. What is certain is that this is a story of an encounter.
- Water sustains life on Earth but it can also be one of the most destructive and dangerous elements. George investigates the wild side of water in class 5 river rapids, a flooded cave, and in the ocean surrounded by Great White Sharks.
- Every two years off the coast of California, a scene of great white attacks occur. Could it be the same shark again and again? Dr. Michael Domeier returns to Shark Week with experts Ralph Collier and Cal Lutheran to find the answer once and for all.
