A two-metre shark has caused panic at Manly Beach, forcing beachgoers out of the water twice before it brought at end to swimming for the day.

A member of the public alerted lifeguards that a shark was swimming near the shore before the shark alarm was activated and all swimmers were called out of the water.

Lifeguards then searched for the two-metre grey nurse shark for an hour before declaring it safe for people to enter the water, only to set the alarm off again minutes later.

“A member of the public spotted it again, so we went back into close mode,” Beach Saftey Councillor Clinton Rose said.

Lifeguards closed the beach for the rest of the day as a precaution.

Grey nurse sharks are not considered aggressive, but they can bite people if provoked.

Experts say a close encounter with one of these sharks is rare. 

“It was just doing laps up and down the beach … chasing whiting or salmon, trying to feed,” Marine Life ranger David Baxter said.
