Amazing footage of dolphins surfing off the coast of Cornwall.

The clip, captured on May 5, in Gwenver, West Cornwall shows a pod of dolphins leaping out of the water as they swim close to the shore.

The filmer, Charlie Gilman, said: "They spent around half an hour playing in the surf and swimming around the bay while we watched."

"I regularly surf at Sennen and see a number of dolphins whilst in the water, however it was very rare to see them jumping in the surf so close to shore."

I was walking along the seafront this evening and noticed some dolphins swimming not too far from shore, I dashed home to let my mother know and we then watched the beautiful aerial display from the pod of dolphins over towards the north side of the beach and Gwenver.
