A GREY seal was spotted enjoying the view at a Dorset beauty spot.
Lulworth Rangers shared a picture of a grey seal relaxing on the beach in front of the iconic Durdle Door arch on Sunday.
The rangers have issued a warning to anyone who sees a seal, urging them not to go too close.
A spokesman said: "As a seal has been spotted in the cove, we thought we'd share some information with you. Enjoy your encounter safely. Seals can be aggressive if you come between them or their escape route or the open sea.
"Never surround or corner a seal or get between a seal and its next meal, or between a mother and her pup. With very large males which may come really close, try to avoid eye contact by lowering your head and keeping still.
"Never stroke or get too close to a seal - it's a wild animal after all, and they don't do selfies."
