Hooked on Humor: 199+ Fin-tastic Shark Puns to Make Waves

Last summer, while delivering custom tote bags to a quirky beach shop in Santa Cruz, I overheard a kid giggling at a T-shirt that said, “Sharkasm: Like sarcasm, but bitey.” 🦈😂 The owner told me it sold out in two days — proof that shark humor has serious bite!

So today, we’re diving deep into fin-tastic puns, social-media-worthy images, and even a few cheeky designs. Whether you’re a beach lover, an aquarium regular, or just a fan of toothy grins, you’ll find plenty here to sink your teeth into.

And yes, Emily Johnson is a California-based merch creator and pun writer — and fun fact: my latest beach café mug line featured a grinning hammerhead saying, “Nailed it.”
