Speaking about the moment she saw the shark, Nikki said: “It is a bit worrying because my children were swimming in the sea here just a couple of weeks ago.

“I don’t know how dangerous it is but the teeth look formidable.”

It is thought the fish is a porbeagle shark which can grow up to 12 foot long.

Shark expert Andrew McLeod said it was a rare find.

The Assistant Curator at The Deep said: “It is quite unusual for them to wash up on the shores though.”
