A man in his 50s has died after being attacked by a shark off Cable Beach, at Broome, on Western Australia's north coast.

The man was recovered from the water this morning and treated by local police before St John Ambulance officers arrived.

The man was also bitten on his upper thigh.

At about 8:45am, police were told of a serious shark attack at the popular tourist beach.

Police could not provide more details and said further information would be provided as it became available.

Shark attacks are rare on Cable Beach, a 22-kilometre (13-mile) stretch of pristine white sand next to the town of Broome.

Authorities believe Sharpe was taken by a shark after widespread reports of a sighting at the Kelp Beds at Wylie Beach in Esperance.
