Watch spectacular moment graceful dolphin leaps high out of the water under Forth Bridges wowing sailors

A dolphin wowed sailors in the Firth of Forth as it repeatedly leapt out of the water beside them.

This is the spectacular moment a dolphin leaps out of the water under the Forth Bridges.

Sailors from Edinburgh Watersports CIC captured the amazing footage on Friday 10 July.

The dolphin can be seen leaping high out of the water next to a boat.

This is not the first time a dolphin has been spotted in the Firth of Forth.

In June last year, a dolphin was captured swimming alongside a man on an electric surfboard in the Firth of Forth. In November last year, a group of kayakers got an “epic” surprise when a dolphin joined them as they paddled under the Forth Bridge.

Edinburgh Watersports CIC offers activities and courses in sailing, sea kayaking, windsurfing, powerboating and canoeing.
