Playful dolphins join in with surfers at Australian beach

Feb. 22 (UPI) -- A man filming surfers at an Australian beach captured video of dolphins joining in the fun and riding waves alongside the humans.

Luke Taylor posted a video to YouTube showing the scene he witnessed Feb. 17 at Tallow Beach, Byron Bay.

The video shows dolphins swimming alongside surfers and often getting so close it appears as though they might collide.

"Today I watched & filmed a large pod of dolphins surfing the waves with all the surfers & almost cutting them off the waves at Tallows Beach, Byron Bay," Taylor wrote. "It was so magical to see them so calm & joyful in their own habitat with all the surfers around them."
