Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, the Discovery Channel's annual Shark Week returns to bear its teeth. This year sees 21 shows crammed into the seven days of programming, with WWE superstar John Cena the great white in charge. In this guide, we're explaining how you can live stream Shark Week 2024, no matter where you are in the world.
So what does Shark Week have for us to chew on this year? It all kicks off on Sunday with Belly of the Beast: Bigger and Bloodier, which Discovery describes as "an intense and eye-opening show that delves into the world of great white shark feeding frenzies".
In addition to the usual array of jaw(s)-dropping documentaries shedding light on this ever intriguing beast of the sea – Monster Hammerhead: Species X, for example, explores a newly discovered species of hammerhead – Shark Week also mixes in the faintly ridiculous, with irresistible titles. Sharks vs Nazis in Paradise, anyone?
As has become the custom in the last few years, 2024's coverage is hosted by another charismatic, intimidatingly built man. Following on from Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Jason Mamoa is the rapping wrestler John Cena.
To make sure you can see all of the fin-tastic programming from this year's celebration of the shark, keep reading our guide on how to watch Shark Week 2024 online from anywhere in the world you are.

Although the Discovery Channel is available by Aussie cable providers like Foxtel and Fetch, there's no sign of any Shark Week 2024 programming in its schedules.
What's more, the dedicated Discovery Plus streaming service is still yet to be rolled out Down Under.
As such, if you're from a country that is showing Shark Week shows but you're in Australia at the moment, we can only suggest that you use a VPN to stream it all as if you were back at home.
