How to watch 'Sharkfest' online from anywhere — stream the TV event online from anywhere
No matter how many times you see a great white shark torpedo itself clean out of the water to turn some poor seal into a cup of takeaway soup, you can't help but marvel at the visceral power. Unfolding across 10 days, "Sharkfest" is a deep dive into the world of these mysterious, ferocious ocean predators, comprising multiple marquee productions, including "Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story". Here's how to watch "Sharkfest" 2025 online from anywhere with a VPN. ► U.S. date and time: "Sharkfest" begins on Saturday, July 5 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Full schedule at the bottom of this page.• U.S. — Nat Geo via Sling TV / Fubo | From July 6 on Disney Plus / Hulu• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN "Jaws @ 50" is a two-hour special featuring behind-the-scenes archive footage of the film's production, as well as interviews with Steven Spielberg and a raft of Hollywood heavyweights, including James Cameron, John Williams, Guillermo del Toro, George Lucas, Jordan Peele, Steven Soderbergh and Robert Zemeckis. According to Spielberg, the mechanical shark didn't work 80% of the time, and he was convinced that the film would end his career. "Sharks Up Close With Bertie Gregory" sees the filmmaker travel to South Africa to dive with great white shark without a cage, while six-part series "Investigation Shark Attack" invites a panel of scientists to debunk or corroborate popular theories about sharks and break down why they strike. "Super Shark Highway" is another six-parter, in which two research teams follow the sharks traveling along the southern shark highway and the tropical north, two of Australia's busiest migration routes, where they witness previously undocumented behaviors. And in "Shark Quest: Hunt For The Apex Predator", survivors of close encounters share their harrowing stories, and footage demonstrates how humans can minimize the risk of a shark attack. Here's everything you need to watch "Sharkfest" online from wherever you are. If you're not at home in the U.S. for "Sharkfest", you can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN.
