Cardigan Bay: Boat operator sees some-fin special
An afternoon's outing on the water turned into a rare encounter with a thresher shark.
Tony Barber, who runs A Bay to Remember boat trips, said it was only the third time he had seen one in 16 years.
His boat was just off Pen-Yr-Afr in Cardigan Bay when the thresher "jumped" into the air alongside them.
He said: "Our main thing we see is bottlenose dolphins, they're resident in Cardigan Bay and we are quite used to seeing them.
"I was just having a look around and spotted a splash in front of us, I spotted one splash and the next thing it shot up right next to the boat, down it went, it came up again behind us.
"We had eight passengers - everyone was having a great trip this was the icing on the cake."
