WATCH: Moonlight and Starlight give swimmers a show

Thursday, 2 October 2025 09:56

A marine wildlife charity's thanked swimmers who were treated to a show from the Island's two best-known dolphins this week.

Yesterday, the Kishtey Chech Beach Spa in Port Erin posted a Facebook video of Moonlight and Starlight just a few feet away from swimmers.

The Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch, based in Peel, says the beachgoers reacted correctly by behaving responsibly near the duo.

It says simply watching the dolphins without trying to touch them or acting erratically is exactly the right thing to do.
