A video of what appears to be a massive shark fin in Marsaskala’s St Thomas Bay has gone viral, garnering nearly 30,000 views on TikTok within 24 hours. The footage, filmed yesterday afternoon, shows the fin-like object moving through the water near the shore, attracting widespread attention online.
However, the size of the “shark” and the calm reactions of nearby beachgoers suggest it was likely a prop for an upcoming production. The presence of a diver swimming casually next to the object further indicates the sighting was staged rather than a real shark encounter.

While the spectacle may have raised some initial concerns, no danger was present in the bay, and it appears to have been created for entertainment purposes.
The video continues to circulate widely on social media. Did you see this shark in Marsaskala?
