  1. Early in 2020, I was doing my volunteer gig at Poipu with the seals and saw 2 small sharks, maybe 4 to 5 feet long, swimming right past the point right across from the tombolo and I hustled up to tell the lifeguards who looked at me like I was crazy- they thought I saw a manta ray. Nope, another lady and I both saw them as they swam right through all of the snorkelers and swimmers. Heard the next day that Poipu beach was closed due to shark sightings. Had to laugh!

  2. Interesting reading. I’ve always had an irrational fear of a shark attack since watching Jaws including swimming in the cold waters off the UK but I do love and admire sharks.
    With regards to the baby shark entering the ‘pond’ at Lydgate beach, I presume this is very rare but wondering if there is a chance sharks could also enter the lagoons in Ko Olina on Oahu? 🙂
