Three metre great white shark knocks surfer from his board off Rottnest Island

A great white shark has knocked a surfer from his board off Rottnest, prompting authorities to close beaches on the island.

The three metre ocean predator collided with the man at Chickens surf break, near Salmon Beach, at 12.30pm on Monday.

He was not injured and managed to safely swim ashore.

Rangers have now closed the beach between Parker Point and Green Island until 3pm Tuesday.

“(Fisheries) Shark Operations Manager confirmed the details and commenced shark incident response with Rottnest Authority Rangers,” a Fisheries spokesman said.

It comes after a 2.5m bull shark was spotted in the Swan River near the Narrows Bridge just before lunch.

Surf Life Saving WA said the report had been made by a member of the public.
