This amusing moment string rays were spotted playing close to the surface of the sea.

A local witnessed the manta ray and the devil ray gracefully swimming in the ocean at Similan National Park in Phang Nga, Thailand, on March 19.

Aerial footage shows the leviathans swirling in the clear, blue water, almost as if they were dancing.

The two rays lingered in the area for an extended period, an extremely rare sight in the country.

These marine creatures typically dwell in deeper waters and only occasionally venture closer to island reefs.
