A shark was sighted in Plymouth, Massachusetts on Sunday morning. 

The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy confirmed the shark sighting. The shark was seen circling a boat and then swam away. 

Elsewhere, police said Duxbury Beach was closed for an hour shortly before noon due to possible shark sightings.

Shark sightings in Massachusetts closed beaches multiple times last summer. In 2018, there were two attacks by great white sharks on Cape Cod beaches, including one that killed a 26-year-old Massachusetts man.

Today we talk to the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy about where sharks are sighted most in Massachusetts, and bring you on the boat while they deploy acoustic detection technology.
