    A busy day on the beaches yesterday for surf lifeguards, with sharks disrupting some of the fun

    A busy day on the beaches yesterday for surf lifeguards, with sharks disrupting some of the fun


    Surf Lifesaving conducted 10 rescues on Boxing Day compared to one on Christmas Day.

    Waihi Beach was temporarily closed after a shark sighting near the flagged area, and there were also several sightings at Whiritoa.

    A helicopter rescue was avoided in Nelson, when a surfer trapped in a cave at Cape Farewell was able to escape with help from a member of the public.
