SURFSIDE, Fla. – An 8-foot, 8-inch Great White Shark is now swimming off South Florida, making it the latest Great White to make the long journey south for the winter.
The shark-tagging outfit Ocearch reports that the male shark named Jekyll pinged off Surfside on Thursday night.

Jekyll weighs just under 400 pounds.
The juvenile shark got its name, because it was first tagged in the waters off Jekyll Island, Georgia in 2022.
Jekyll is not alone out there.
A 10-foot, 3-inch Great White named Penny just pinged again yesterday, this time off Marathon.
Penny is a juvenile female shark that weighs more than 500 pounds.
