I think the swimming area is designated by the Newport Beach Lifeguard Association for Master Swimmers.
There was a life guard boat nearby and some other swimmers. Her excellent physical condition is one reason she survives.
The shark bit her once and then released her, with a lot of puncture wounds to the bone, a sucking chest wound, tissue loss on her arm, and a lot of blood.
The sharks were pups last year. It’s only now that they are big enough to start eating people. Stay tuned, the fun is just beginning.
