Shark Sighting Report Portal

Before submitting shark sightings to Shark Watch SA it's important that you click on the Step 1 link and read the protocol from the PIRSA webpage for reporting shark sightings. Please note that Shark Watch SA, is in no way, associated with state surf rescue bodies who are trained to deal with such situations and will not implement the appropriate action involving the evacuation of beachgoers in response to a shark sighting. Shark Watch is a separate/independently managed service that does not have the power or authority to undertake such a response and offers limited protection to beachgoers in response to a reported shark sighting beyond the reports that are shared across our social media outlets
