Drone spots Great White Shark off Bondi Beach
This morning, Drone Shark app videographer Jason Iggleden posted the footage of the Great White Shark just off Bondi Beachโs waters on his Instagram account.
It first appears that three to four Bronze Whalers are swimming to the along the shore, but Jason told DMARGE that one of them was actually an almost 10-feet-long Great White Shark.
โI canโt 100% guarantee it butโฆ the nose is pointy and the movementโฆ like I saidโฆ [appears to be that of a Great White].โ
Jason adds that:
โAny shark other than a Grey Nurse shark I have been informed by [the] council to inform Lifeguards if they become close to beachgoers and especially if theyโre amongst the salmon. 50% of surfers stay in if itโs a Bronze Whaler but if itโs a Great White they all get out. The one this morning is not 100% confirmed a Great White but Iโm pretty confident it was by the movement. The last time I saw a Great White was back in May last year 2019.โ
Fortunately, there hasnโt been any unprovoked shark attack in the Sydney regions since 1963 according to this report from 2015.
