While carrying out a search in the St Agnes area yesterday, the crew of Devon and Cornwall Police helicopter came across this pod of seals enjoying the spring sunshine.
Cornwall Wildlife Trust said it's unusual to see so many in a pod like this on Cornwall's coastline.
The British Isles has half of the world population of grey seals living in its waters.
They feed on a mixture of fish and crustaceans, but fast during the breeding season.
Sue Sayer, Coordinator of Cornwall Seal Group said "It is very interesting. It is not unusual for seals to haul, but is is for them to haul at St Agnes.
"Seals are usually very picky - perhaps they were disturbed from their usual place."
Sue explained the group of about 30 grey seals appeared to be made up largely by adult males who would have hauled to rest and digest food.
She explained, "They would have arrived separately and individually and would have left separately and individually... They could have arrived from anywhere in the Celtic Sea, from Ireland, Wales or France."
She added "Seals are at their most vulnerable when they are hauled, so they prefer spots where other seals have already hauled as there is safety in numbers."
