SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.—Confirmed “aggressive” shark behavior has forced officials to restrict ocean access to beaches in San Clemente until the evening May 27.
Shark behavior in the vicinity of T-Street Beach has restricted water access to all San Clemente beaches until 8 p.m.—pending no additional shark sightings, according to city officials in a news statement.
An aggressive shark apparently bumped a surfer off his board late on Sunday, prompting lifeguards to shut down a two-mile stretch of sand, a marine safety officer told The Orange County Register.
There was no other immediate information.
