A so-called floating ship as been caught on camera off the Devon coast.

The optical illusion seems to shows the cruise liner - Ventura - hovering above the water on sea off Lyme Bay.

A photo of it was taken from Teignmouth. Dave Medlock posted his image on Facebook.

Weather experts say it is down to a temperature difference in the sea surface and the air.

It's the second one of its kind to have been captured after a similar photo emerged off the Cornish coast last week.
