Shark Island (Cronulla Beach)
Shark Island is a dangerous reef break about 100 metres from Cronulla Beach in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It has a rock ledge that you can see when the tide is low.
Many people enjoy bodyboarding and surfing at Shark Island. The waves can grow very big and strong fast, making it a tricky place. Bodyboarders say it has one of the most powerful waves in the world.
Every year, there is a big bodyboarding contest called the Shark Island Challenge. There is also a swimming event named the Shark Island Swim Challenge held at Cronulla Beach.
