Ocean safety officers have reported the possible sighting of three tiger sharks of at least 10 feet in length, with at least one reported to have 'aggressively' chased a group of paddle boarders.
Safety officials warned people to"steer clear" of the water between Keawakapu Beach and White Rock Beach in Maui after several sharks, including a 10-foot-long tiger shark, were reported in the area. At least one other shark was reported to have"aggressively" followed a group of paddle boarders and bitten one of their boards, according to local authorities.
Ocean safety officers who surveyed the area reported"the possible sighting of three tiger sharks of at least ten feet in length" and"at least one shark had been aggressively following a group of stand-up paddle boarders who attempted to fend it off with their paddles," the Hawaii DLNR confirmed.
"Standard protocols call for warnings and signs to continue until at least noon tomorrow, after authorities survey the area to ensure no further shark activity," the department added.International Shark Attack File of the Florida Museum of Natural History
