Where is Mary Lee, the great white shark, now?

The 3,500-lbs. great white shark that has been swimming up the Jersey Shore is now off the coast of Island Beach State Park, perhaps wanting a view of one of the Garden State's most pristine beaches.

Sunday update: Shark recorded off Lavallette

As of 11:30 a.m., the shark, named Mary Lee by the preservation group that is tracking her, was about 15 miles off the barrier beach.

The 16-footer has been working her way north: Mary Lee swam nearly 53 miles since Friday morning, when she was determined to be near the southern tip of Long Beach Island. Less than a month ago, the shark was a couple hundred miles east of Hilton Head Island, S.C.

A tag on the great white's dorsal fin is transmitting her location to research team at OCEARCH, which is sharing that information with the public.

OCEARCH is a nonprofit organization that does global research on great white sharks and other large apex predators. Their work enables leading researchers and institutions to generate previously unattainable data on the movement, biology and health of sharks to protect their future while enhancing public safety and education.

Mary Lee has been to New Jersey before, in 2013, but likes to spend most of of her time off the coasts of South Carolina and Georgia. She has crossed the border to Florida. She's even been to Bermuda.

The public can follow Mary Lee's migration by going to the Global Shark Tracker at OCEARCH.org. She also has a Twitter account @MaryLeeShark.
