Practice Shark Safety

We remind beach goers to practice shark safety at all beaches:

• Don't swim where seals are present.
• Don't swim too far from shore.
• Swim in groups.
• Avoid wearing shiny jewelry or other accessories (which look like fish scales to sharks).
• Avoid cloudy water (sharks could mistake you for prey).
• Avoid surfing alone.
• Avoid areas with signs of baitfish or fish feeding activity - watch for diving seabirds.
• Be aware that sharks may be present between sandbars or near steep drop offs.
