my daughter and a friend went out on a canoe from the surf cafe end of beach and were follwed by a shark my daughter was crying and when she got back to beach the man who rented her the canoe told her to 'shush' im sure it was a one off incident but it just shows how we need to be a bit careful when in the sea

I have been told of someone seeing sharks off Olu Beach. They were swimming

Quite possibly a shark but not a killer one.

I would love to see the Dolphins in the bay and to be honest to see sharks would be pretty good , they are hardly likely to 'Great Whites'!...this is their home after all.

There are 1000000 times more sharks killed by people than people killed by sharks each year.

There ARE great whites in the med, but are more common around Sicily.

The likelihood of being attacked by a shark is very remote.

What was seen was probably a dolphim.
