Shark is spotted in shallow waters in Spain less than a week after another sparked panic on Costa Blanca beach

It was seen on Wednesday morning off a dock on the island of Arousa in the Galician province of Pontevedra, home to spectacular white sandy beaches beaches and small coves which are popular with tourists and locals.

Footage showed the shark's telltale fin appearing above the water line as it approached a fisherman's boat.

The clear shallow water made it very easy to see.

Fishermen filmed it swimming in the swallow water because its presence so close to the shoreline is rare.

Last Thursday a fully grown blue shark measuring some seven feet caused panic off the Costa Blanca beach of Aguamarina in Orihuela Costa south of Alicante.
