ORLEANS, MASS. (WHDH) - The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy tagged their tenth and eleventh white sharks of the season Monday, both off Nauset Beach in Orleans.
An 11-foot white shark was tagged about 100 yards offshore in the area of the beach parking lot, according to a post on the organization’s Twitter page.
Then, less than an hour later, a 9-foot white shark was tagged about a quarter-mile off Nauset Spit.
