A Cape Cod beach was closed after a white shark was spotted near the place last Wednesday. The aerial photo even showed the great aquatic predator swimming right near the shore.
The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy’s spotter pilot, Wayne Davis, observed the shark lurking in the water off Newcomb Hollow Beach in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, Boston.com reported. The photo, which was shared on Facebook by the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, shows the white shark in close proximity to the beach after beachgoers were ordered to get out of the water.
“August to October are peak months of white shark activity off Cape Cod,” the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy wrote on Facebook. “Whether or not a sighting is reported, we advise caution and recommend not venturing beyond waist-deep water.”
I’m relieved to hear that no one was harmed.
