Tuna spotted off the Isle of Man coast

A rare Bluefin Tuna has been spotted in Manx waters.

Pawel Garczynski and Brian Liggins were the lucky snappers, who spotted the predator chasing its prey off Marine Drive in Douglas on Saturday.

Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch shared the incredible photos and says the species was wiped out in Britain in the 1960's but are now making a comeback in the British Isles.

The charity adds its working with the government to ensure this type of fish has protection in Manx waters and as a result fishing for tuna without a licence is illegal around the Isle of Man.
