It is commonly known that dolphins are friendly and clever animals. However, dolphins approaching people for belly rubs seems to be something pretty strange. But recently, a 30-second-long video was posted on Twitter capturing such a scene when a dolphin enjoyed belly rubs from a snorkeler. It was such adorable footage!

The unexpected scene was caught on camera by Elaine Farrell the wildlife photographer in Ireland’s Aran Islands where she was waiting for the ferry. From her view, she saw a friendly dolphin enjoying the time of its life as an obliging snorkeler was spoiling it with belly rubs.
The moment was so adorable that she couldn't think of anything rather than quickly grabbing the camera and filming it. Watch the video below:

As can be seen from the video, the marine animal rolled over the water coming to the woman while she was sitting on the boat. After that, the two share a super-sweet moment.

We are pretty sure it was not the first time they ever had contact with each other. The dolphin, called Dustin, has been famous to the local people. He often sees the divers coming along and swims to them to ask for a hug.
According to Elide, Dustin is a very friendly and active boy. He really loves to interact with humans. The two unlikely friends kept enjoying their encounter for a couple of hours before Dustin left. We hope their video will make your day.
