As of late December 2025, the body of missing swimmer
Erica Fox, who disappeared from Lovers Point, California, after a possible shark encounter, had not been found,
leading authorities to suspend the extensive search efforts, though
search advisories remained in place for the area. The 55-year-old
swimmer was last seen Sunday during a routine swim with her group when
witnesses reported a large splash, and some believed a shark was
involved. Key Details:
- Missing Swimmer: Erica Fox, a co-founder of the local Kelp Krawlers group, went missing.
- Incident: A witness reported seeing a large splash and a shark in the water; the rest of the swim group returned safely.
- Search Status: The U.S. Coast Guard and local agencies suspended the active search for Fox, citing over 15 hours of operation without success.
- Beach Closures: Lovers Point and nearby beaches were closed temporarily, with advisories issued for other local beaches through Tuesday, December 23, 2025.
While
no body was recovered, the search was called off due to the challenging
conditions and extensive search area, with officials expressing
condolences to her family.
