Can I swim in Hawaii on my period?

DON'T: Don't enter the water if you have any open wounds or are bleeding in any way, including females on their monthly period. Sharks can detect blood and body fluids in extremely small concentrations. Don't enter the water if it is murky, cloudy, polluted from run-off or has poor visibility for any reason.
