A huge shark’s fin has been spotted slicing along the surface of the Mediterranean sea off the coast of a Spanish resort, The Sun reports.

The 13ft beast was also filmed thrashing its tail on a sunny day just off Calahonda Beach, on the Costa Tropical east of Malaga.

In the clip, the large shark’s fin is seen gliding along the water’s surface and weaving among the buoys,  where some boats are anchored.

Sharks are often spotted close to the shore in Spain, sending beach goers into a panic but attacks are rare.

In 2018 a Great White shark was spotted stalking a boat off the southern coast of Majorca — the first official sighting at the spot in 30 years.

Scientists filmed the huge 16.5ft "Jaws" near the holiday island before sharing the horrifying footage on social media.

There are also said to be aggressive Tiger Sharks and Bull Sharks in the region.

Other dangerous types in the Med include the Blacktip shark, the Hammerhead shark and the Sand Tiger shark.
