Beaches between Stockton and Redhead were closed for most of today, after a shark was again spotted in the area.
It was first seen just metres offshore at Merewether yesterday.
Lifesavers sighted the shark again just after midday, at the northern end of Nobbys Beach.
Newcastle Beach was deemed safe to re-open late this afternoon, while the remaining beaches will be re-evaluated before patrols begin tomorrow morning.
