WATCH: Seal hitches a ride on a paddleboard

Check out the moment a cheeky seal hitched a ride with paddleboarder, Cenk Albayrak-Touye, in Poole Harbour.

The uninhibited seal swam up, climbed aboard and enjoyed a spot of sunbathing.

Albayrak-Touye, 25, told the Daily Mail, the seal was so big and heavy he wondered if they were going to over-balance and fall in the water. But, after a quick glance in his direction, the seal gently slipped off the board and back into the water.
