This wasn't an ordinary day at the beach for these sunbathers at Itacoatiara Beach in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro. When a curious dolphin washes up on the shore, Instagrammer luccas.1 is quick to act. The dolphin had no signs of injury or mistreatment following the rescue. Great job Lucas and friends, you all are heroes! 

Following the recent 7.8 earthquake in Kaikoura, New Zealand air bubbles are now rising from the ocean floor, creating a must-see for kayakers and wildlife. It is unknown how long this may last but a geologist has visited the site and claims this phenomenon has "extreme scientific value". Great capture Kaikoura Kayaks!

But if they do, everyone's hoping for a jaw-dropping friendly seal pup and whale meet-and-greets like these kayakers on Wildcoast Adventures and Kelp Reef Adventures tours in British Columbia. After brushing by several adorably curious seal pups, they spot a mom humpback whale and her calf way off in the distance. It's a great show until both dramatically disappear under the water. Just seconds later, these folks find themselves with front row seats in the wildest splash zone ever! View Now
