Shark Bites in Florida Explained | Orlando News
Description
New Smyrna Beach’s shark bite reputation is back in the spotlight after a recent incident near Daytona Beach Shores — but don’t panic. Experts explain it’s not random: warm waters, prime underwater terrain, and heavy swimmer traffic create the perfect storm for encounters. Most bites are quick, non-fatal “slash and dash” events, often triggered by sharks mistaking splashing surfers for prey. Stay alert, avoid splashing, and swim near lifeguards for safety.
