Demelza Carlton
Demelza Carlton has always loved the ocean, but on her first snorkelling trip she found she was afraid of fish. She has since swum with sea lions, sharks and sea cucumbers and stood on spray drenched cliffs over a seething sea as a seven-metre cyclonic swell surged in, shattering a shipwreck below. Sensationalist spin? Hardly – she tends to take a camera with her to capture such sights so she can share them when she arrives home. Demelza now lives in Perth, Western Australia, the shark attack capital of the world.
