Great White Sharks Off NC And SC Coast

Experts are asking people to take extra precautions.

Many great white sharks are swarming around the Carolina coast. Some of which are the biggest currently tracked in the Atlantic Ocean.

Researchers with OCEARCH are reporting a total of 23 Great Whites within 50 miles of the North and South Carolina Coastline. The sharks were previously caught and tagged with electronic trackers.

6 of the sharks in the swarm are among the biggest ever tagged in the Atlantic, ranging in size from 10 feet to 15 feet in length.

Experts are asking that if you are going to swim in the ocean to remove all shiny jewelry, wear magnetic shark repellents, and avoid colorful swimsuits.
