🦈 No Shark Smart Drumlines Deployed in Port Macquarie Today

Port Macquarie residents and beachgoers can be reassured that no SMART Drumlines were deployed along the local coastline today. This information comes directly from the NSW SharkSmart program, which provides up-to-date alerts on shark activity across New South Wales.

The SMART (Shark Management Alert in Real Time) drumline program uses technology to detect sharks in real-time, allowing authorities to respond quickly to potential threats. These drumlines are an important part of NSW's strategy to reduce the risk of shark encounters at popular swimming and surfing spots. While no drumlines were active in Port Macquarie today, the NSW SharkSmart website continues to be a valuable resource for the latest information on shark sightings, tagged shark detections, and any shark incidents that may occur.

The NSW Department of Primary Industries manages the SharkSmart program, which also offers advice on how beachgoers can stay safe in the water. This includes tips on when to swim, where to swim, and what to do if you encounter a shark. For the most current information, residents are encouraged to visit the NSW SharkSmart website.
