Two sightings of a rare breed of shark have been reported off the Pembrokeshire coast in recent weeks.

The thresher shark is an uncommon visitor to Welsh waters but has was spotted twice during the 2024 National Whale and Dolphin Watch which ran from July 26 to August 4.

The event aims to get a ‘snapshot’ of what can be seen in UK waters, with the data collected giving an idea as to the distribution of whales, dolphins and porpoises.
