You've heard of snakes on a plane... and even a train... but have you SEEN a penguin on a surf board?

You're about to!

A video of a local surfer and a penguin has gone viral after being shared on AccuWeather on X.

The video shows a surfer catching waves on a local beach in Cape Town.

As he dips in to catch a wave with his surfing board, a penguin surfaces with on top of his surf board, and hangs out with the surfer dude for quite a bit. 

The local surfer says to his friend, 'did you get a video of that?'

The friend responds, 'yeah, surf's up bra, such a great interaction.'

Watch below...

"Only in Cape Town."
