Yes, there has been a shark attack off Portugal. Of 4,555 entries in its Incident Log, the Global Shark Attack File lists only one shark attack for mainland Portugal. It's Entry 1195. It's undated. The only information is it's occurrence off Sines in the District of Setúbal in southwest Portugal. Two small row boats were fishing for mackerel. No details are given. There's just the comment "No injuries."

Only one shark attack is confirmed in portuguese waters.

But there are many sharks in portuguese waters. Even great whites.

However, there only one confirmed register of a shark attack in the portuguese coast, near Sines; no fatalities, only an attack to a small fishing boat, decades ago. Few details are know.

In Algarve waters, sharks are very common, specially small to medium size hammersharks like Sphyrna lewini. Happily, there is no shark attack ever registered in Algarve's waters.
