Two hippos were caught on camera bathing at the T-jetty at Alkantstrand on Tuesday morning.
According to Jaun-Pierre Leite who filmed the action, the pair ventured out of the water at about 8.20am for a few minutes before swimming off again.
All while the dredger was working in the vicinity.
This is not the first such sighting in Richards Bay, as these residents have been spotted in and around Meerensee several times in recent weeks.
