Two of the deadly creatures were seen off Daytona Beach in Florida, close to the famed spring break destination. Their distinct fins could be seen amid the surf just yards from dry land. Thankfully no one was seen in the water at the time and there were no attacks reported. This came days after a woman was attacked by a shark while celebrating her friend's birthday in "the perfect cocktail for the perfect storm." Natalie Branda was left with a gruesome bite mark that needed 14 stitches after the attack off Florida's Gulf Coast. The 26-year-old was swimming in murky water near St Pete's Pier near St Petersburg when she felt a 'pressure' on her leg. 'I just felt pressure, and it released, and I was like: "I got bit!'' she told Fox 13 Tampa Bay. 'I swam the fastest I ever swam to the boat.' For all the latest on news, politics, sports, and showbiz from the USA, go to The Mirror US. After climbing back onto the boat, her friends were horrified to see the injury on Natalie's stomach. Her friends frantically performed First Aid while they rushed back to the dock. She couldn't see the wound and her friends kept trying to reassure her "It's not that bad." But Natalie recalled: 'Then I turned around and everyone was like: 'Oh, my God.'" Emergency doctors confirmed it was a shark bite. Her friend Allie Mucks told Fox: 'It's not very common that people experience that and walk away with just some stitches." The incident hasn't put Natalie off swimming but she has vowed to take better precautions next time. She said: 'I don't know if I'll do what we did last time. The water was kind of murky. It was the perfect cocktail for the perfect storm. We are invading their home. I){kind=link}
