Meet the new Plett Shark Spotters
Following the announcement of a partnership between Bitou Municipality and the Plett Shark Action Group (PSAG), and Shark Spotters, to implement effective shark safety strategies in Plettenberg Bay, the spotter team visited our coastal town to do detailed site inspections for spotting following which a call went out for shark spotter applications.
We are pleased to introduce the new Plett Shark Spotter team with Plett local, marine biologist and life coach, Gareth Greenwood as operations manager.
Greenwood was a speaker at the first Plett Ocean Festival’s Marine Science Symposium earlier this year and we look forward to meeting the new shark spotters – who have been in training with Cape Town shark spotters and will be identifiable by their uniforms – along Plett’s coastline this summer.
Meet the rest of the team and congratulations on their appointment!
