OP here. We're definitely not going more than ankle deep when we visit.

Agreed. Shark tank fencing around designated swimmer areas.

It's a weird year with the water temps being higher than average and the unusual current. They should look at the whole sea turtle and beach restriction aspect and see if that is contributing to this problem because honestly it's the one big change that's been made over the past few years and suddenly there is a shark problem. Could be a coincidence...but something to look at.

I'm not sure how they would go about maintaining a shark netting. It's hard enough to keep the roads in one piece!

I'm SO glad my ex cancelled his annual OBX trip this year (for non-shark reasons). I can't imagine the fight we would have had when I tried to get him to keep the kids out of the ocean down there....

I read they are coming to shore because of the explosion of sea turtles (aka shark food).

Ocean City Maryland didn't have an attack, but an 800 pound hammerhead was spotted very close to shore0suspected to be injured.

It's more likely that their nature food source is fished out. The Commercial fishing trawlers have really cleaned the OBX out, plus people shark fish from the beach there.


The experts say the opposite. It's an increase in the food supply near shore (they specifically mention sea turtles).

Wasn't there another shark attack today? Are you guys letting your dc swim if you already have a trip planned?
