Answer

Are sharks in Mallorca harbors a real concern for swimmers and boaters?

Shark sightings in Mallorca harbors are unusual, but they do happen from time to time. A sighting does not automatically mean there is immediate danger, but it should be taken seriously and reported so local authorities can respond properly. Harbors can attract marine animals because of fish scraps, currents, and nearby prey.
