We have shark management initiatives in place at our patrolled beaches. These include:

• Drone surveillance used for confirmed shark sightings. This helps identify the type of shark and track its movements.
• Jet skis used by lifeguards and lifesavers to try and steer sharks away from swimming areas

Reduce your chances of coming across a shark by only swimming between the red and yellow flags at patrolled beaches.

Lifeguards will warn swimmers to leave the water and close beaches if a shark is spotted near a patrolled swimming area.
