There were a total of 28 reported shark bites in the U.S. last year, with half of them happening off of Florida, according to new data. Cape Cod again did not have a reported shark bite last year.

The United States continues to be the most likely country in which to get bitten by a shark, according to the annual International Shark Attack File from the Florida Museum of Natural History. Twenty-eight of the 47 unprovoked shark attacks recorded in 2024 occurred in U.S. waters.
