The mysterious phenomenon was witnessed by baffled staff from a dolphin watching company, reports.
Owner of SeaMôr Dolphin Watching Boat Trips Brett Jones said: “They were coming out of the water and crawling up the beach. We don’t quite know what’s causing it.
“Perhaps it’s because the sea has been quite rough recently but I’ve never seen anything like it before. They were walking on the tips of their legs."
The mysterious sightings have been reported over several nights with Brett advising people to return the creatures to the sea if possible.
