In the United States, it can be found in the waters along the Atlantic coastline all the way to Florida and around to the Gulf of Mexico. In the Pacific, this shark can be found from California through Mexico and southward to Peru. It is also found in the Caribbean region, in the Mediterranean Sea from Senegal to Morocco and in the Indian Ocean from French Polynesia to New Caledonia.
GREAT HAMMERHEADS PREFER WARM, SHALLOW WATERS. Great hammerhead sharks live in warm and tropical waters all over the world, including off the coasts of the United States. They can be found close to shore as well as offshore, and commonly at depths from 3 to 300 feet, or as deep as 1,000 feet.
