Dolphins at Perranport

Recently saw an episode of Beach Rescue where they showed dolphins swimming with the surfers

Is this a seasonal thing or does it happen always??

Going to Newquay for Easter - wondered if would be worth a trip there to try and spot some!

I think they come into the bays in the summer mating season, i have been out in watergate twice when they have been swimming around and right up to surfers. They are normaly around in early august most years i think.
