The issue

Elizabeth Bay's favourite swimming spot has zero shark protection. Let's fix that.

Every day, people gather at Beare Park in Elizabeth Bay to enjoy its beautiful waterfront - swimming, exercising, and relaxing by the water. Yet people currently swim there without any protection against sharks.

Recent incidents and sightings nearby, along with data from the NSW Department of Primary Industries showing a rise in shark encounters, highlight the very real risk to those who use the harbour.

A shark net enclosure at Beare Park would protect swimmers while respecting the surrounding marine environment. As visitor numbers grow, this safety measure is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity.

The City of Sydney and State Government are urged to take action.

Sign this petition to call for a shark net enclosure at Beare Park, protecting the community while preserving what makes this waterfront so special.
