A pod of more than 20 playful dolphins swam alongside a Dun Laoghaire Harbour crew’s boat on Friday, much to the crew's delight.
The crew managed to capture the scene in a fantastic video, which was shared online by Dun-Laoghaire Rathdown County Council on Twitter. The council said a cruise ship was visiting Dun Laoghaire Harbour on Friday morning and was anchored in Dublin Bay.
On their way out to the cruise ship, they came across a pod of over 20 dolphins. The dolphins stayed around the guide boats for around an hour before the bay became busy with traffic, and they swam off together.
