Hundreds of beachgoers were forced out of the water on the southern Gold Coast on Saturday after a dolphin was mistaken for a shark.
Miami and Nobby beaches were temporarily closed as a precaution after the fin of what appeared to be a shark appeared in the water at around 11.30am.
However, the beaches were reopened around 30 minutes later when a search revealed the creature was in fact a dolphin.
