Dolphins at the weekend

Here are two short mobile phone videos which don’t do them justice. We were transfixed for 15 mins just watching them jump out of the water, dive under the boat and generally run rings round us J

On fri we cut across from Fowey to Salcombe so were quite far out. We'd seen a number of dolphins in the flat calm water, non were v active, but then saw it moving slowly somewhere off Newton Ferrers or Bear Island I guess.

Everything was heading west! Not sure why.
