Western Australia's Shark Bay has lived up to its name after a school of sharks were filmed turning its pristine waters red during a feeding frenzy.

Tourists were on a cruise to Dirk Hartog Island on Friday when they came upon 70 tiger sharks going to town on a dead humpback whale.

The sharks wasted no time stripping the carcass like a horde of piranhas.

The encounter was filmed using a drone by Geraldton cruise company Eco Abrolhos.

"Something to show and tell the grandchildren," the company said.
