WATCH: More amazing footage of basking sharks in Ardmore

Conor Heneghan

They’re obviously fond of the place.

Earlier this month, we brought you footage captured by the folks at Ardmore Adventures of a close-up encounter with a basking shark in the seaside town in Waterford.

With the weather Gods smiling down upon us, JOE reader Brian Dowling took a trip to Ardmore on Sunday afternoon, when 11 basking sharks could be spotted in the water at the same time as a group had taken a few kayaks out for a spin.

It’s not quite as up close and personal as the encounter with the basking shark from earlier this month, but it’s still pretty spectacular stuff; it’s a good job Brian had the drone in the car.
