#MarineWildlife - Today is World Oceans Day, as Krank.ie reports, the day to recognise the wealth and diversity of the planet's seas.
And what better way to celebrate it than to highlight some of the extraordinary marine wildlife that make Ireland's coastline so inviting - starting with this amazing video (via The Daily Edge) of a basking shark in Cork Harbour, captured from overhead by a drone camera.
The enormous shark dwarfs the RIB piloted by our company Ocean Escapes, who shot this incredible footage.
Elsewhere in Cork, the Southern Star highlights this clip of a breaching minke whale off Galley Head.
And the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group has welcomed Ireland's newest solo dolphin, who may not be the friendliest of cetaceans!
Chet the bottlenose dolphin is visiting the South West from across the Celtic Sea, and is understood to be a "non-socialble solitary dolphin who does not seek out or engage with swimmers".
As such, the IWDG is urging any dolphin watchers in the region to be sensible and avoid a repeat of last summer's incidents with Dusty the Doolin dolphin.
