Simon Woodley took a beautiful series of pictures at Roker as the dolphins jumped and swam in the water this morning (Tuesday, May 31).
Dolphins are regular visitors to the North East in the warmer months, with sightings in the sea from Northumberland down to Durham and Cleveland.
According to the Whale and Dolphin Conservation charity (WDC), around 30 different species of whales and dolphins have been seen around the UK coastline.
The species most often spotted around the UK are bottlenose dolphins, harbour porpoises and minke whales.
Take a look at Simon’s stunning photos.
