Barney Currie spent just 14 days observing this stretch of coastline in South East Qld and recorded a surprisingly large number of sharks. The dates were from 17th December 1948 to 1st January 1949. It’s an interesting number to look back on. Particularly when there’s a feeling these days that there are more sharks around than there used to be. To see that many sharks in just 14 days, is probably well beyond what most of us would have imagined. It doesn’t tell us what species exactly or the specifics of his processes, but it’s a pretty compelling piece of data to have from 14 days of observation. Thanks for your work Barney and @firstnationslifeguards lifeguards for passing on the info. Cut from the latest ep with @pro_guarding If anyone knows what the processes were back then for alerting swimmers when sharks were present, please let us know.

A very special part of the @kirra_longboard_klassic ❤️🌊 One of my favourite moments from the weekend was watching the Adaptive Surfing display unfold at Kirra. This was a combined session featuring surfers from both heats, and what these guys and girls got out there and did was genuinely inspiring. Jack Curphey, Chris Astill, Jayden Schindler, Leanne Whitehouse, Stuie Jimmy Reginald Harris Jnr, Luke Darby, Mark Leslie, Mark ‘Mono’ Stewart, Deni Boyd, Daniel Twomey, Toby Begg, FumitorA Higa and Victoria Feige — every one of you should be incredibly proud of what you put on display. It’s easy to talk about overcoming challenges, but watching these surfers out in the lineup, chasing waves, finding their lines and having an absolute blast puts it all into perspective. They’re a reminder that anything is possible when you have the opportunity, the determination and a community behind you. And then, as if the session wasn’t special enough, there were whales cruising right alongside the lineup. 🐋 Watching these incredible surfers share the water with whales passing just offshore was one of those uniquely magical Gold Coast moments you couldn’t script. A huge shoutout also has to go to the @firstnationslifeguards who were there throughout the session — both on the JetSki and in the water — helping these inspirational surfers navigate the lineup and get the most out of every opportunity. That’s what makes the Kirra Klassic so special. It’s not just about competition. It’s about community, inclusion, helping each other into waves and celebrating the simple joy of surfing. To every surfer who got out there, everyone who helped make it happen and everyone cheering from the beach — this one was pretty special. ❤️🌊🐋 #KirraKlassic #AdaptiveSurfing #SurfingForAll #Longboarding #SurfPhotography
