This is an awesome spotting (I have a soft spots for sharks) - I think it might be a Lemon shark due to the lack of the distinct markings of the Black tip. Have a look at the link and see what you think.

Yes it is a shark alright, but what kind and what is it's scientific name?! If you don't know then please list it as being in need of an ID!!!!!
