There may soon be more sharks on camera than in the “Jaws” series.

A new fleet of shark-monitoring drones will be sent to New York coastlines in response to a frightening spate of bites and sightings near Long Island this week, state officials said Friday.

The state is fighting shark attacks with dozens more of the battery-powered devices  — which track the man-eaters from above — after five peoplereported being bitten in waters off Long Island during a two-day period, state park officials said.

“We are now more vigilant than ever,” said George Gorman, the state’s park director in Long Island. “We have drones in the sky that watch over the waters. We have lifeguards on WaveRunners that watch over the waters.”

The high-flying gadgets will be deployed to beach communities on Long Island and in New York City, beefing up the state’s shark surveillance program, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced.

The drones make three daily sweeps, including before opening, midday and before the beaches close, said Cary Epstein, a lifeguard supervisor who pilots drones at Jones Beach.

“These new drones will increase the shark monitoring capacity of local governments across Long Island and New York City, ensuring local beaches are safe for all beachgoers,” Hochul said in a press release.

The state’s new drone investment allows beachside cities that didn’t previously have access to the devices to better track sharks — and provides cash to train workers to operate them, Hochul said.

On Thursday, a 10-foot shark was spotted at Robert Moses State Park and prompted officials to temporarily ban swimming.

A teenage girl reported being attacked by a shark in the waters at the same beach Monday, according to officials.

Peter Banculli, 15, of North Babylon, was bitten on the foot by a shark the same day while surfing at Kismet Beach, about three miles away.

Two more people were also chomped on in the waters off Long Island on July 4th — including a 47-year-old man whose right knee was bitten near Quogue Village Beach in the Hamptons at 2 p.m., Quogue police said.

Shortly after, a 49-year-old man reported that a shark sank its teeth into his hand at Fire Island Pines Beach, roughly six miles from where Banculli was attacked.

Another unknown person was also attacked by a shark around the same time, Gorman said.

Robert Moses Beach was briefly closed on Fourth of July after officials said they spotted a school of 50 sharks swimming nearby — but the creatures turned out to be harmless fish, officials said Friday.

Long Island State Parks deployed at least six drones to monitor sharks near Long Island last summer, with 13 certified operators, Hochul announced in July 2022.

Last year, eight people reported being bitten by sharks off Long Island’s beaches.
