Great White Shark sightings on Cape Cod has scared swimmers. There has been several Great White Shark sightings in Cape Cod in last few weeks, scaring tourists at the peak of tourism season in the region.

Swimmers are told to pay extra attention in the water at Chatham. Officials have strongly suggested tourists in the water to pay close attention at their surroundings and if they see a shark, get out of water as soon as you can.

Town has also recommended tourists not to go deep into the water and remain as close to the shores as possible because shark sightings chances in deep water increases and if any shark comes close to shore, swimmers can get out of water pretty fast.

These warnings have come after several sharks incidents. First last week tourists were warned of shark sighting at the Salisbury beach, north of Boston, then on Tuesday a great white shark was sighted at the Chatham.

Tourists are finding it very difficult to enjoy at the beach and in water. One Tourist at the Chatham said:

When you are in region where sharks have been sighted, it becomes very difficult to enjoy. If you go into the water, you'll be scared all the time and looking around for sharks in the water. On the other hand if you are relaxing on beach, you'll consistently have to look around for children to make sure they haven't jumped into the water. This is very tense and that's not they way to spend vacation
