12ft Great White Shark Pictured in San Diego Wave

As Labor Day weekend begins, many will be planning family trips to the beach.
Although, for those in San Diego, this picture might make them think twice.
A terrifying photograph shows the moment a Great White shark was spotted in a wave in Encinitas, California - just a few feet away from completely oblivious surfers.



Gary Elliott, a passer-by who took the picture on Wednesday was convinced he had seen a shark - and the claim has now been backed up by marine experts.
'It looks pretty clear to me,' Mr Elliott told CBS8. 'It doesn't look like a surfer. It's not the silhouette of a board.'
The claim was initially disregarded by lifeguards at the beach.
Robert Veria said the photograph had, in fact, captured the moment a surfer duck dived into the wave with his or her knees bent.





But marine experts have since confirmed that the picture is most likely to be of a shark.
Ralph Collier, from the Shark Research Committee, told CBS8: 'In my opinion, we are looking at the tail end of an animal that is... 10 to 12 feet, maybe a little more.

Officials said despite the sighting the beach would remain open for the weekend.
The stunning image was taken as two-mile stretch of coastline in La Jolla was reopened yesterday despite three confirmed sightings in a week along the San Diego coast.

Re: 12ft Great White Shark Pictured in San Diego Wave

Well, I can't help thinking that the shark DOES belong in the sea. The surfers don't. I hope they don't set out to kill the poor thing.

Re: 12ft Great White Shark Pictured in San Diego Wave

I am in favour of the killing of sharks... And surfers... Give a surfer a spear and let them go at it... Winner eats the loser.
