Monster sharks prowl E. Coast

The East Coast’s summer shark scare is at high pitch, with a 10-foot great white tracked off Atlantic City Tuesday and two more predators spotted off Long Island, prompting beach closures.

The great white, dubbed Miss May by researchers, showed up off the Jersey coast Tuesday morning, according to the nonprofit group Ocearch, which has been tracking her since last year.

She was “well off shore,’’ said a post on a Miss May Twitter account set up by Ocearch.

Meanwhile, another shark was spotted off Jones Beach and a third off Atlantic Beach, both at around 3 p.m., Hempstead Township Supervisor Don Clavin said.

“The troubling aspect is, it just isn’t one location — it was multiple sightings,’’ he told The Post.

He said the one in Atlantic Beach was confirmed as a bull shark.

“The bull shark is actually tremendously dangerous,’’ Clavin said.

On Monday, there were three suspected bull-shark sightings in the same area.

Officials closed down the affected beaches, including to surfers, both times.

Clavin said Hempstead has asked Nassau County police to conduct a flyover looking for sharks.

He added that lifeguards also are continuing to monitor the water, while the town is asking fishermen to keep an eye out, too.

Lido Beach resident Lauren Breen, a teacher, said Tuesday, “I’ve never had the water closed in all my 50-plus years of living here — the water has never closed with sharks.

“Am I scared of them? Who wouldn’t be? You think back to the movie ‘Jaws’ and it haunts you for the rest of your life.”

But Breen’s daughter, a college student, said, “I wish I could swim. It’s kind of hot, and I’m just frying here.”
