Three giant sharks were spotted cruising together off the coast of the British Isles.

The enormous creatures were moving in formation just below the surface.

Astonishing footage showed the stunning trio gracefully swimming in unison.

Each was around 15 to 20 feet long.

And despite their fearsome appearance, they were actually harmless basking sharks.

They were spotted in Donegal Bay, Ireland.

Witness Stephen Dunbar was impressed, as reported by Whats The Jam.

He said: “Ireland is the best place in the world to see these incredible creatures.

“There was huge numbers over the last few days.

“They often feed together.”

In April John Paul Baska spotted another monster basking shark off Arranmore Island, County Donegal.

At the time he said: “It was big, maybe 35-feet-long.

“I have seen bigger ones.

“But the family of five who were on the charter were impressed.

“There was plenty of plankton for the sharks to feed on.

(Jam Press/North West Charters)

“And great fishing too.”

The basking shark is the second-largest fish in the world, beaten only by the whale shark.

It is one of just three plankton-eating sharks, alongside the whale shark and the rare megamouth shark.

These gentle giants can be found swimming alone or in small groups.

They pose no danger to humans.
