Shark warning issued for Cape St Francis Posted by Anita Froneman on 30 October 2020 The NSRI issued a warning to bathers, surfers and paddlers in Cape St Francis and St Francis Bay area to be cautious after a shark was spotted on Friday, October 30. ‘A shark has been spotted swimming close to surfers at Cape St Francis main beach. We are appealing to bathers, surfers and paddlers to be cautious,’ said Craig Lambinon, NSRI spokesperson. Those along the coast from Tsitsikamma to Port Elizabeth are also cautioned to keep out of the water. The area is known for its resident great white sharks. The NSRI also reminded South Africans about the availability of life buoys across the country. ‘The Pink Buoy initiative has saved countless lives. If you ever see someone in danger of drowning, think pink. You will find our pink buoys on strategically placed signs near bodies of water across South Africa,’ the NSRI said on Facebook. ‘Anyone can save a life with a pink buoy. Pink is for buoys.’ Picture: Twitter/MitchelmoreMHA Related Posts Cape Town’s sustainability: Leading the way in environmental initiatives 1 June 2023 As National Environmental Month commences in South Africa, Cape Town stands proudly at the forefront... read more Kapama to host Safari Guide of the Year Awards 2023 1 June 2023 Kapama Private Game Reserve near Hoedspruit will host this year’s Safari Guide of the Year... read more Blood Lions relaunches for public viewing on YouTube 1 June 2023 Award-winning documentary feature film Blood Lions has been relaunched on YouTube for public viewing, creating... read more PREV ARTICLE NEXT ARTICLE
