WELLFLEET, Mass. — People flocking to some Cape Cod swimming areas on Saturday were advised not to go into the water for some time after sharks were spotted off Wellfleet and Truro.
The water at Cahoon Hollow in Wellfleet was closed to swimming until 5 p.m. Saturday “due to confirmed sighting of a white shark,” according to a tweet by @MA_Sharks, which tracks shark sightings along the Massachusetts coast.
