Amie Medeiros snapped a picture of the frozen fiend and posted it to her Instagram account.
She said in the post the shark was “not what I was expecting to find on my frozen winter adventure”.
According to CNN, it is understood that the animal is a porbeagle shark, and it may have died due to an injury to its side.
Wounds and gashed above its fin are visible in Amie’s photos.
The image also revealed that ice and frost covered the usually sandy beach after temperatures in the area dropped below freezing.
The publication added that shark sightings across Cape Cod waters peaked over the summer as people flocked to the beaches of the popular vacation spot.
