Shark alert!

BEACH‐GOERS at Cala Llombards in San‐tanyi had the shock of their lives on Sunday April 16 when a shark appeared on the shore.

The two ‐ metre ‐ long blue shark was visibly disorientated for several min ‐utes while witnesses rushed to take videos and photographs of the unex ‐ pected visitor, until it finally recovered its bearings and swam off into deeper waters.

It was the latest ‐ and largest ‐ of sev ‐eral sightings of blue sharks in Mallorca over the last few weeks, which are feared could cause concern among visi ‐tors with the arrival of summer.
