This is the moment a mini dust devil caused havoc on a beach - sending beachgoers running for cover and multiple gazebos flying in the air.

Jennifer Skelly, 41, was enjoying a day out at Soundside Beach Park in Bayville, New York, last month.

When all of a sudden, the wind picked up and a dust devil began to a dust devil began to form.

Footage shows large umbrellas, chairs, blankets and at least three gazebos all being blown up into the air.

Jennifer, a teacher from Bayville, New York, said: "My initial reaction was to panic and make sure all the children were safe from the flying objects.

"It was pure chaos but all of the beach goers and lifeguards made sure everyone was safe."

There were no reports of injuries.
