The Shark Spotter app provides water users with all the latest shark safety information at our operating beaches, including which flag is flying and why, the latest shark sightings at that beach, water temperature and lunar phase and shark exclusion net deployments. The app is updated by the spotters on duty in real time so users always have the most current information at their fingertips to help them #BeSharkSmart when entering the water. In addition to the shark safety information, the app also provides other useful information including weather conditions, marine animal activity in the area (such as whales, seals, dolphins and sunfish), details of amenities on the beaches, as well as a short surf video.
But, what if you don’t have the app yet?
