"Parents are urged to help ensure that their children are aware of the potential danger to themselves and to follow the advice of lifeguards and/or the police on the spot," a spokesman for the Recreation and Culture Branch appealed to members of the public today (Friday).
The Government Flying Service is continuing with its dawn surveillance programme over Sai Kung waters during the weekend to monitor the situation. Lifeguards at gazetted beaches and the Marine Police are also on the alert to spot sharks and respond as necessary.
Shark warning flags have been hoisted at the Campers, Clear Water Bay First, Clear Water Bay Second, Hap Mun Bay, Kiu Tsui, Pak Sha Chau, Silverstrand and Trio beaches since June 2.
