[UK] Great White sighting 'possible'

County basks in tall shark tales

Tall tales of great white shark sightings have put Cornwall on the map, Cornish tourism bosses admit.

But Cornwall Enterprise said tourism numbers remained largely unchanged by the extensive media coverage.

Footage of a shark breaching in the water near dolphins off St Ives is now thought to have been a porbeagle shark.

And a Newquay man has admitted his picture of a great white was not taken off the north Cornwall coast, but during a fishing trip to South Africa.
