'Are they after my tuna sandwiches?' Kayaker's close encounter with jumping dolphins off English coast
- 6 years ago
A kayaker was paddling two miles offshore from the South Devon coast in England when he was surrounded by a pod of dolphins.
The footage, captured on Monday (September 10), shows the dolphins breaching the surface around Rupert Kirkwood’s kayak.
“A pod of about twenty common dolphins decided to escort me for five minutes, jumping and playing.
“I think I've been accepted as one of the pod. Or are they after my tuna sandwiches?” Rupert said later online.
