随着澳大利亚新南威尔士州进入夏季,海滩游客数量不断增加。根据SharkWatch无人机项目的监测数据,去年冬季(7月至8月)该州海岸探测到超过1200条鲨鱼,项目组采取了360次干预行动 1。今年已有1000条鲨鱼被发现,相应采取了800次对策措施 1。
然而,海洋安全专家强调,溺水才是更为严峻的风险 1。2025年新南威尔士州共有60人溺水身亡,其中30人遇难于无巡逻海滩;同期仅有4人因鲨鱼咬伤死亡 1。为降低风险,专家建议游客在有红黄旗帜标记的海滩区域游泳、与他人成群结队下水、避免在黄昏和黎明时段入水,以及远离污浊水域 1。
由新南威尔士州冲浪救生协会运营的SharkWatch项目监测95个海滩,配备80架无人机和约650名志愿飞行员 1,为海滩游客提供实时保护。
As New South Wales enters its summer season, beachgoers are increasing their visits to coastal areas. SharkWatch drones, operated by the NSW Surf Life Saving Association, detected over 1,200 sharks along the state's coastline during July and August, triggering 360 intervention actions 1. However, ocean safety experts emphasize that drowning remains a far more significant threat to swimmers than shark encounters. In 2025, the NSW coast recorded 60 drowning deaths, with 30 of those occurring at unpatrolled beaches, compared to just 4 fatalities from shark bites 1.
To minimize risks while enjoying the ocean, marine experts recommend several precautions 1. Swimmers should stay between the red and yellow flags, where lifeguards maintain active surveillance, swim in groups rather than alone, and avoid entering the water during dawn and dusk hours when shark activity peaks. Additionally, avoiding murky or unclear water is advised. The NSW Surf Life Saving Association operates the SharkWatch program, which monitors 95 beaches using 80 drones and relies on approximately 650 volunteer pilots 1. In 2025 alone, SharkWatch identified 1,000 sharks and deployed 800 intervention measures to enhance beach safety 1.
