It’s sort of cool to swim in the ocean at night, especially if you encounter phosphorescent plankton. It sparkles when you swim through it, like Disney pixie dust or something. Loved to do it when I was in college.

But, anyone who’s ever spent time out on the fishing piers knows just how many sharks actually are out there. I rarely go in above my knees now, and never at night.

I remember in my teen years (40’s) with a bunch of other kids swimming and body surfing in the moonlight at OBX on a number of beautiful evenings. It used to be a great place before developers took over and super saturated it with cottages.
