Are great white sharks appearing in Irish waters?
A team of researchers is hoping to turn unconfirmed sightings of great white sharks in Irish waters into reality.
US non-profit research organisation Ocearch is cautiously optimistic that great whites do indeed haunt the waters around Ireland and Britain.
They’re aiming to create history by finding one off the southwest coast of Ireland.

Perfect environment for great white sharks. If it wasn't for the goddamn orcas……
Its Ireland-stan these days, get it right 🙄
It's not the sharks in the water I fear , it's the Sharks in this God 🙏 forsaken country I fear most
Great White…..
Yep. Sounds very Irish.
No.
If anyone had ever found a great white anywhere near britain or ireland theyd have preserved the jaws even if it was 500 years ago cos it wouldve been such n oddity n fascinated people, todays people want to make their own mark on history, they arent satisfied with the known facts n see fame n wealth if they can just disprove all known history or wisdom, i know where they should look next, the north pole, to even suggest the irish of the past thousand years didnt know what was in their own waters is offensive, theyre n island people, masters of the sea, nearly as accomplished as the british, imo.
Buffet on a beach? Someone tell that guy sharks can only breathe in water lol
Can't afford the rent
All part of starmers plans 👀😂
shark come to the nearest man, that man he starts poundin’ and hollerin’ and sometimes that shark he go away… but sometimes he wouldn’t go away.
Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be livin’… ’til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then
Maybe they can finally stop the boats
i am not scared of sharks
Anywhere there’s Tuna or Seals there’s gonna be Great Whites
Their preference is baked as opposed to mashed …
Love how this comment section is full of racists
They heard the borders are open
TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY….THIS IS A PUBLICITY STUNT AND THEY KNOW IT!
THERE IS ZERO EVIDENCE OF GREAT WHITES IN UK OR IRISH WATERS, NO SEAL PREDATION OR SIGN OF INJURY, NO SIGHTINGS BY FISHERMEN WHO ARE CHUMMING FOR FISH, NO WHITE SHARKS ACCIDENTALLY NETTED BY COMMERCIAL TRAWLING VESSEL'S 😂😂
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING….
BUT HEY…..LETS SPEND MILLIONS AMBLING UP AND DOWN OUR WATERS FINDING NOWT!😂😂
BLESS ❤
Right, got my budgies and snorkel.. how do I get involved please. Thanks
I’m an Englishmen and always been interested in sharks and the prospect of them being closer to home.
I’d like to see a video on why they wouldn’t be in this area as appose to why they should.
The lack of evidence suggests that this would be a logical way to go imo
Can’t they just ask the shark nicely to next time produce if not passport some i.d .. I mean is that so much to ask!! Cmon
I don’t want sharks in Ireland. That’s one of the few privileges of swimming in Irish beaches.
I wonder if we could train the great white sharks to attack dingy boats to sink them
Not sure but too many illegal immigrants are appearing in Ireland’s hotels, leave the sharks alone and deal with the real problem
just cancelled my holiday to county kerry
Surprised the wokes haven’t insisted on changing the name of these sharks…
Very racist and offensive name….
Why do they think we would like to have man eating sharks bopping around?
😂
No chance waters are not warm enough
So u think this is a problem 😂😂😂😂😂
Would be easy all we have to do is increase the Temperature of the Sea. We csn have Great Whites in the English Channel then.
They will probably blame the British
The only way to find or lure a great white is to tow a dead beached whale out a few miles of the coast and anchor it.then place remote cameras filming what comes to feed.a great white could pick up the scent a 100 miles away and follow it to the carcass if they are present.
They trying to help stop the boats lol
Lot of mud sharks in Ireland now
Plenty of food at Dover . Curry flavour
As much as i love sharks i really don't want them around in these waters.
I thought i once read great whites had been tracked off the coast of Cornwall?
Be good to have them swimming in the English Channel 🇫🇷 🛶 🏴 🦈
Well it doesn't surpirse me it looks like nova scotia
It's due to the climate change. It's so bad now that the oceans are boiling dry and billions are dying every year. It's an unprecedented crisis.
Callig bs
My favourite part of Ireland now possibly with my favourite shark. No doubt if the seals are found by Great Whites they will come stay and bred. That will produce another tourist avenue of 'Shark Tours'. Amazing!
They won’t be around while there are Orcas .The apex predator.
Just what I’d of thought not there never been there
There’s enough sharks in Westminster.
Appearing? I would be surprised if they didn’t find anything. Cornwall is a good place to do research too.
Ni
Great white sharks wash up dead wherever they roam. So they arent here.
I hope we have great white sharks in British waters soon because I'll take my wife to the beach
We need some at the Dover straight
