The Sea Watch Foundation says encouraging numbers of harbour porpoises and dolphins have been spotted around the Devon and Cornwall coast this year during its annual survey.
The National Whale and Dolphin Watch has revealed north Devon is a key area for marine mammal sightings.
The latest survey included a sighting of a 20-strong pod of common dolphins near the Isles of Scilly and several bottlenosed dolphins.
The foundation says recording the whale and dolphin population is useful in providing a warning of potential problems in the marine environment.
