Researchers at Florida Atlantic University captured the annual Blacktip Shark migration off Singer Island over the weekend.

The footage, which you can see here, shows thousands of sharks heading south toward warmer water. These sharks are often called the "snowbirds of the sea," because they migrate south during the cold months when water temperatures drop below 71 degrees. When the weather and water warm back up they will return north. 

The video was taken right off of John D. MacArthur Beach State Park in North Palm. Blacktips are regarded as fairly timid animals and account for very few attacks on humans. In places like Georgia, South Carolina, and northern-central Florida, there are areas that have cloudy inlets and an abundant supply

Munyon Island is a small island situated in the Lake Worth Lagoon in North Palm Beach. The island is currently owned by John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, so park visitors can rent kayaks and paddle over to it to birdwatch, snorkel, or just hang out.  

The island was originally called "Nuctsachoo" by the Seminole Natives, which means "Pelican Island," as it was reportedly one of the largest wading bird breeding grounds in South Florida. 

The first "resident" of the island was a man named Rodgers who lived as a castaway and made a living selling sea turtles he caught out of the lagoon in 1884. In 1892 the Pitts family bought the island and built a two-story house upon it. 

The Pitts sold the island to Dr. James Muyon in 1901 who built a hotel

The Amaryllis, a 450-foot, 7,200-ton Greek banana freight boat, was headed for safety at the Palm Beach Inlet. It was overpowered by massive swells that steered it straight toward the shallows off Singer Island. The ship was pushed ashore just in front of the Rutledge Inn, which is now the Hilton Singer Island Oceanfront Resort. 

The enormous boat would take thousands of hours and loads equipment to remove from the beach. But for three years the Amaryllis created some of the best small waves in the area. The washed up wreckage attracted surfers from all over the southeast coast and Singer Island became
