SURFERS have been ordered out of the water following two separate shark sightings in the state's South West near Margarat River.

A four-metre shark was spotted by the South West Lifesaver Helicopter around 200 metres off Honeycombs surf break near Wilyabrup just after 3pm today.

Surf Life Saving WA said the water has been cleared as a result.

Earlier this morning the helicopter spotted a 2.5 metre shark 200 metres offshore at Lefthanders surf break in Gracetown at about 11am.

The water was also cleared as a result.

The helicopter also saw two-metre hammerhead 200m offshore at Boranup. It was heading south.

Earlier today a 3m-4m shark has been sighted about 700m off the Quindalup boat ramp, just east of Dunsborough.

Surf Life Saving WA reported a large fin was seen 700 metres off the Quindalup boat ramp just after 1pm.


It is believed the shark was heading north.

A two-metre shark was also sighted 60m off shore at Strickland Bay, Rottnest at 11.20am.

The shark sightings today follows the drama yesterday in Esperance when about 30 people had to be rescued off a large rock at Twilight Beach when an estimated 6m white pointer was spotted from air.
