ORLEANS, MA — Three known sharks were spotted in the waters off Nauset Beach on Wednesday morning, the Sharktivity app reports.

All three sharks were detected at the same buoy. A shark named "Luke" was detected first, at 2:36 a.m., then "Kendel" was detected at 7 a.m., and, finally, Granese was detected at 7:54 a.m.

Another shark sighting was confirmed at 9:44 a.m. in the waters off the Chatham Lighthouse beach. That shark was spotted swimming south, about 100-yards from shore.

"Luke" was also detected in the waters off Newcomb Hollow Beach on Tuesday at 11:22 p.m., according to the app.

These sightings come after a busy weekend of shark sightings on the Cape.

A great white shark named "Mr. Spot Claw" was spotted in the waters off Nauset Beach over the weekend, according to the Sharktivity app. It was one of just 11 confirmed shark sightings on the Cape this weekend.

The shark was detected by the Nauset Beach receiver on Saturday at 10:15 a.m., the app said. Beachgoers were notified and a heightened swimming advisory remains in place, but the beach was never closed.
