The Shark Situation
The KwaZulu-Natal coast is known for its shark-infested waters, and this week has been no exception. Several shark sightings have been reported, with some of the most common species being the great white, tiger, and bronze whaler. These sharks are attracted to the area due to the abundance of bait fish and the presence of seal colonies. Some of the most notable shark sightings include: + A great white shark spotted near the town of Umhlanga Rocks + A tiger shark caught on camera near the beach in Ballito + A bronze whaler shark seen swimming near the mouth of the Umfolozi River
