Newcastle beaches shut for 6th day

Newcastle's beaches remain closed due to a shark, nicknamed Bruce, that is disrupting swimmers.

A five-metre great white shark, nicknamed Bruce, has failed to keep Newcastle beachgoers from dipping their toes, and more, into the water.

The problem is, it's summer, it's stinking hot and it's school holidays.

Beaches in the coastal NSW city remain closed for a record sixth consecutive day on Thursday after further sightings of the huge shark, first spotted on Saturday at Merewether Beach.

But scores of swimmers and surfers defied warnings and have taken to the water at Newcastle's beaches on Wednesday, when the mercury hit a high of 34 degrees, and Thursday, when it reached 28C.

The last confirmed sighting of the shark was at Nobbys Beach on Wednesday afternoon when more than 50 swimmers and surfers reportedly hit the water at Newcastle Beach.

Lifeguards continued their patrols on Thursday.

"The lifeguards there are doing their best to inform people of the danger and to keep them out of the water, but on a day like yesterday when it was 35 degrees and such a good day, it's hard to keep them out," said Nobbys Beach lifeguard Isaac Morgan.

"If we see people swimming in the water, we try and direct them over to the baths," he said.

Lifeguards and hotel guides have been directing bathers to the city's two natural ocean pools - Merewether Ocean Baths and Newcastle Ocean Baths.

Shark hunt shuts beaches

The huge 16ft shark was first spotted on Saturday off Merewether Beach and was last seen off Nobbys Beach on Wednesday afternoon.

Beaches are typically closed in the surfing city of 315,000 people, 100 miles north of Sydney, four or five times a summer due to shark sightings. Sharks are usually herded away by lifeguards on jet-skis and are never seen again.

Newcastle City Council's aquatic services co-ordinator Peter Withers said he had never encountered such a large shark or one that had lingered in the area in 37 years working for the authority.

The public was generally co-operating with the beach closures, although some surfers were willing to take the risk, he said.

Council spokeswoman Dana Fischetti said long-term council employees could not recall a shark closing city beaches for so long.

Beaches are reopened 24 hours after the last shark sighting. While the council does not keep records of the last longest period of beach closures, they are usually only closed for a day or two.

Patrols have resumed their search for the shark.

'Biggest shark ever seen' leads to beaches closed in Australia

It is not safe for board riders to be out in the water, even close to shore, as sharks are known to move into the surf zone, hunting prey between where the surf breaks and the shoreline... It is unusual for a shark to stay around the same coastal areas for this many days in a row, and we would like to have at least a 24 hour period of no sightings before the beaches are reopened.

Australia has had a spate of serious shark attacks in recent years, mainly on the west coast. There have been numerous beach closures during the current summer, including at popular beaches such as Bondi in Sydney.

Lifeguards around Newcastle, which has a population of about 550,000, have been working extra hours and conducting additional patrols on jet skis.

Despite the warnings, beachgoers have continued to enter the waters to swim and surf.

Peter Withers, a long-serving council worker who runs local aquatic services, told Fairfax Media: "We've consistently seen the big one every day. Certainly it's the biggest shark we've ever had and it's hung around longer than any other shark.

Cliff Marsh, from the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service, said the shark was "15 foot and ... a real menace".

Beaches closed: Five-metre great white shark the biggest Newcastle has seen

All Newcastle beaches will close again on Thursday, with council lifeguards emphasising that the great white shark cruising along the coast for five days was "of a size that has not been seen before around Newcastle".

Estimates have the near fully-grown shark as being five metres long and about 1700kg, with a council spokeswoman stating authorities would like to have a 24-hour period with no sightings before beaches are again opened.

Newcastle Council aquatic services co-ordinator Peter Withers, who has served in the region for 37 years, said: "We've consistently seen the big one every day.Certainly it's the biggest shark we've ever had and it's hung around longer than any other shark," hesaid.

Newcastle would typically get as many as five shark sightings triggering beach closures annually, a number that hasn't changed much in years, Mr Withers said this year notwithstanding.

Prior to that, there was a sighting by those on board a police vessel off Burwood and Merewether beaches.

Shark sightings: despite record stretch of closures, little change on previous years

Newcastle beaches will be closed for a record sixth straight day due to the repeated sightings of a very large shark, raising the question whether we should be more alarmed than usual.

The number of NSW beach closures because of shark sightings is little changed on previous years, with public anxiety likely to be inflated by the explosion of social media reporting, experts say.

Figures compiled for most of the coast and Sydney Harbour by Surf Life Saving NSW tally 165 shark sightings resulting in beach closures this season, on a par for the same stage of last summer.

While the closures exclude those at popular beaches such as Bondi and Cronulla which are served by council-paid lifeguards there was no indication that shark numbers were on the rise, said Vic Peddemors, a shark biologist with the Department of Primary Industries.

"Because there is commercial fishing along the entire east coast of sharks of various description, the chance of the shark population going up is pretty much inconceivable," Dr Peddemors said.

Concern about sharks has been heightened this week by the closure of Newcastle beaches since Saturday because of multiple sightings of a great white shark estimated to be five metres long and 1700 kilograms in weight.

"Certainly it's the biggest shark we've ever had and it's hung around longer than any other shark," Newcastle Council aquatic services co-ordinator Peter Withers, who has served in the region for 37 years, said

A late suspected sighting of the shark on Wednesday near Nobbys Head means Newcastle beaches will be closed for a record sixth consecutive day on Thursday, Mr Withers said. "We've consistently seen the big one every day."
