New South Wales is deploying 38 drones across 70 beaches in a $34 million shark surveillance blitz, flying dawn till dusk to spot dangers beneath the waves — especially after high-profile incidents like a surfer losing an arm. Sydney alone gets year-round coverage, with flight times adjusted for daylight shifts. Experts praise drones as the best current tech, though wind and shark size can limit visibility. Public education is key to avoid panic amid over 750 sightings and 200+ interventions since July. AI software is being tested to help identify sharks faster, and tagged sharks are tracked via listening stations. Drones are part of a broader safety strategy — always swim between the flags.
