Sharks??? - I come from France and I plan to come 3 months from August to october in Healdsburg.
As you can imagine, we don't know anything about sharks and I'm a little worried about its.
Can you tell me more about, please?
Thank you for your answers...

sharks - yes, always - supposedly we have more great whites since we're within the breeding triangle. But they're always underneath anywhere you travel. There is a food chain & you take your chances the same as in a casino, pal. Have fun!
