Oftentimes, the aquatic mammals are spotted majestically gliding across the Maltese Islands by fisherman, swimmers and those casually enjoying a day on the boat, and this experience is no different.

A video sent to Malta Daily shows a majestic duo of dolphins glide their way across Marsaxlokk’s coast, close to the Hofriet fish farm, before they disappeared into the depths in the blink of an eye.

Have you seen any dolphins this year?
