PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- YouReporter Sherry Furgerson sent in an amazing video of a pod of dolphins surrounding her boat in Port St. Lucie.

Furgerson said the dolphins swam up to the boat as they were fishing and heading back to the Ft. Pierce Inlet. Curious about the dolphins, they slid into the water to swim alongside them.

"In unison they would approach me and then slow down, take a sharp turn and dive down going under me and come up on my other side," Furgerson said. "One dolphin even came up and flipped over to show his belly."

As they left, Furgerson said they started to follow the boat. Sounds like a nice afternoon!
