Sea Kraits, like Sea Snakes are air breathers and must go to the surface about every 10-30 minutes. Underwater, if they are not hunting, they often “nest” together. I’m only a few feet away, but have no fear. Despite the fact that their venom is absolutely deadly, they are completely un-aggressive and have teeth that are so small, you’d practically have to shove your hand down their throat to get into trouble.
