Shark spotters have sure been busy these last few weeks along the Cape and Islands, including over the weekend as several shark alerts lit up the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy’s Sharktivity app.
Multiple great white shark sightings continued to trigger beach closures on Sunday. Two beaches on Martha’s Vineyard were closed to swimming for two hours following apex predator sightings.
“SHARK ALERT !!” tweeted MA Sharks, which is run by local shark expert John Chisholm, who confirms sightings for the Sharktivity app. “South Beach & Norton Point, Edgartown closed to swimming due to multiple shark sightings.”
