Massive Great White Shark Visits Santa Barbara
Jaws is just in time for Halloween! A 17 foot great white shark was spotted just beyond the shore of El Capitan State Beach near Santa Barbara.
“She is not your everyday Southern California juvenile; she’s a massive adult that you should avoid”
“Poe Girl” named by Keith Poe was stated to have a dorsal fin the size of a traffic cone. But any threat from the shark has since been alleviated. As of yesterday morning (Oct. 23), Poe Girl has moved considerably far offshore.
