Moment huge pod of porpoises spotted just off Devon coastline

• Watch the moment the porpoises were spotted off the coast of Devon

A large group of porpoises gave beach-goers in Devon a treat when they swam close to the shoreline in Torbay.

Kieran Laureston, who runs Sea Kayak Torbay, says he has "never experienced anything like it".

"Normally you've got to go two miles out to sea to see such a thing," he said.

"We are so lucky that they came in so close, right into the back of the bay here, almost just off Babbacombe Beach and literally playing underneath the boat.

"To have them this close and so many in proximity, it doesn't happen like this normally."
