Several beaches in WA's south-west have been closed this afternoon after a big shark was seen less than 20m from the shore.
A surfer reported seeing a large shark near Huzza's Surf Break in Cowaramup Bay at 3.10pm today.
As a safety precaution, the Augusta-Margaret River shire has closed the beach and several others nearby for 24 hours.
