Researchers at Stanford University’s Hopkins Marine Station found a “White Shark Café” located halfway between Baja California, Mexico, and Hawaii.

They also learned how deep the sharks dived and how long they swam below the surface. Watch this video to learn more about this previously unknown shark gathering place in the Pacific Ocean.
