If its not sharks
It’s a tsunami! NSW and Queensland beaches were closed and the Manly ferry suspended after 8.1 earth quake near the Solomon Islands –

Beaches closed
I went for an early morning surf in rubbish on-shore winds in 1ft conditions water temp was beautiful and visibility was amazing, I remember checking the cams later on in the morning at around 11am and thinking the on-shore winds must have blown blue bottles in as there was no one out there. Little did I know a Tsunami warning was in full effect!!
