A sudden spike in shark attacks has shaken a seaside community, forcing beach closures and leaving both locals and tourists on high alert. In recent weeks, large great white and tiger sharks have been spotted unusually close to shore, with several attacks reported.
Lifeguards are keeping watch, and public safety sessions are advising swimmers to stay in groups, avoid early morning and evening swims, and skip shiny jewelry that might attract sharks.
Marine biologists are working to figure out what’s causing the sharks’ aggressive behavior, looking into changes in water temperature, prey patterns, and human impact on marine life. While fear has gripped the community, it has also sparked important conversations about protecting both people and ocean wildlife.
For now, the message is clear: stay cautious, stay informed, and respect the sea.
