Yes, shark sightings are relatively common around Myrtle Beach, as the area is part of the natural habitat for several shark species. While most sharks are not dangerous to humans, and sightings often involve smaller species, local authorities monitor shark activity to ensure beachgoer safety. Additionally, during warmer months, the frequency of sightings can increase as sharks are drawn to the coastal waters. Overall, while sightings do occur, serious incidents are rare.

Is there more sharks in Myrtle beach or Virginia Beach?

While both Myrtle Beach and Virginia Beach have shark populations, Myrtle Beach is often noted for having a higher frequency of shark sightings. This is partly due to its warmer waters and abundant marine life, which attract sharks. However, the actual number can vary year to year and season to season, so it's hard to provide a definitive answer. Overall, both locations are popular beach destinations with a presence of sharks, but Myrtle Beach may experience more sightings.

Yes. The sharks of Mytle Beach are not the kind of shark typically involved in attacks. Most of what you find are Sandbar sharks and Bonnethead sharks. Lemon sharks and Bull sharks, types of sharks more likely to attack humans, can be found off the coast of Myrtle Beach but less frequently. Shark attacks are rare here. The last fatality at myrtle beach from a shark was in 1883. Still, stay out of deep waters after 4:00 (feeding time) The lifeguards will post a warning if sharks are spotted. If you see one before the lifeguard, tell him/her immediately.
