A pair of sharks were seen swimming in the waters off of Long Island, New York, in stunning drone footage. 

According to Joanna L. Steidle of Hamptons Drone Images, the animals were confirmed to be white sharks. 

Sharks have been active near East Coast shores this summer and the Empire State's Rockaway Beach was reopened on Sunday after shark sightings in the area closed it the day before. 

"We understand there may be residual fear, but the presence of sharks in the ocean is the result of successful long-term conservation efforts and a sign of a healthy environment. Sharks are generally uninterested in humans, and shark attacks remain extremely rare," the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation tweeted.
