A stunning video featuring dolphins performing acrobatics off the coast of Latsi, in the Paphos district, has been released by the Instagram page MyCyprus.
The video, captured by user seniorita.elina, shows dolphins swimming just a short distance from paddlers and jumping out of the sea several times.
This behaviour is called breaching. Dolphin use the coastline’s shape for navigation, significantly when searching for other pod members. They might jump out of the water to let other dolphins know where they are and avoid being separated.
