A bottlenose dolphin who has been seen off Ireland's south coast recently is paying a visit to Inis Oirr.

Clet, who is recognisable by his damaged dorsal fin, arrived at the Aran Islands on Monday.

He has been spending time with Sandy, another bottlenose who has been in the area since February.

However the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group is reminding swimmers to keep their distance from the pair. They say that "both these individuals have a track record in interacting/playing 'aggressively' with swimmers."

The group says they had lost track of Clet after his appearance at Valentia Island in early September.

Clet also spent time in West Cork in May.
