Two popular Melbourne beaches, and a third on Victoria's Surf Coast, were temporarily closed on Sunday after more shark sightings near the shore.
Elwood Beach and St Kilda Beach among Melbourne's most popular swimming spots were closed about 12:00pm after a 1.5-metre shark was spotted.
The species is not yet known. Both beaches were re-opened about 1:30pm.
Fairhaven Beach, south of Anglesea on Victoria's coast, was also closed about 2:00pm after two shark sightings.
Lifesavers were patrolling the area on Sunday afternoon.
Another shark, believed to be a bronze whaler, was also spotted at nearby Anglesea about 10:30am, but the beach remained open.
There have been numerous shark sightings along the coast in recent days, including on Friday, when six great white sharks were seen near Fairhaven.
