Dolphin stampede!

Watching a pod of common dolphin at sunset is so mesmerizing! In the summer, warmer temperatures and trips that depart late in the day allow for sights like this. We are so fortunate the have so many dolphin off the coast of Southern California and Newport Beach frees easy access to deep water canyons which create upwelling and lots of nutrients for these animals. Common dolphin are the smallest dolphin we see here, only reaching up to around 200 pounds max but what they lack in size, they make

🐬 BEACHED DOLPHIN 🐬 A common short-beaked dolphin was washed up on Forresters Beach earlier this week, but lucky, a local beachgoer came to the rescue! Marine Wildlife Rescue Central Coast has praised the fast actions of the water hero, which potentially saved many others, as it's likely that the dolphins' pod would have tried to follow. ORRCA is the service to call regarding injured or distressed marine mammals (dolphins, seals, whales, dugongs, etc.). The hotline number is (02) 9415 3333📞 |

A beautiful Day of the Dolphin. Common Dolphin were seen on all four trips aboard the Ocean Adventures today. Several trips had multiple pods. All had a number of small calves - a nursery pod within the larger pod. When cows and their calves group together for protection, it also enables the mothers to share the responsibility. It’s nice to have relatives to help “calf-sit” while you hunt and feed. On the 10am trip we had a stampeded of the Common Dolphin as the much larger, Bottlenose Dolphin m

Today at Dana Wharf Whale Watch we saw bottlenose dolphin and common dolphin. Early in the day there was a large pod of about 50 offshore bottlenose dolphin (including calves) very spread out just south of Laguna Main Beach. They were headed south and sometimes feeding. We found a feeding frenzy with common dolphin and hundreds of birds less that 50 yards from shore close to Victoria Beach. Today’s highlight was this afternoon with a very energetic pod of long-beaked common dolphin. Several enjo

We saw a Common dolphin stampede off the coast of Dana Point, California while whale watching aboard @danawharf this afternoon. There were several babies swimming alongside their moms as well. No one is certain why dolphins suddenly begin to stampede, but it is theorized they may be alerted to a food source, evading a nearby predator, or meeting up with another pod of dolphins Video captured with my Canon R5 & CanonRF 100-500 mm lens off the coast of Dana Point, California #canoneosR5 & #canonrf

Yesterday’s Killer Whale Quest found a pod of 6 Killer Whales hunting a Common Dolphin! They were spotted from over a mile away as the Orcas were jumping clear out of the water in pursuit of their prey. When we arrived they already had full control of the dolphin and were just finishing it off. Afterwards the Killer Whales did a spyhop and other playful behavior including visiting the boat. Then just like that, they disappeared. The @californiakillerwhaleproject and @orcawatcher2 tells us this w

Extraordinary sighting of a northern right whale dolphin today! This is only our second recorded sighting in over 20 years of a northern right whale dolphin. This northern right whale dolphin was sighted swimming with sea lions and a pod of common dolphins. It went over to our catamaran Hoku Nai'a to bow ride for over 10 minutes. The dolphin even turned on its side to look at passengers on board! Once in a while, a few common dolphins would swim over to check out the new visitor. Witnessing nort

On Sunday, whale watchers aboard vessels operated by Capt. Dave's Dolphin & Whale Watching Safari watched a pod of common dolphins stampeding off the coast of Dana Point, California. The pod was estimated to have had about 300 dolphins. They look like they’re having fun! 📹: Buck Munson/DolphinSafari.com #dolphinstampede #danapoint #fox5sandiego | FOX 5 San Diego

A noteworthy sighting from last Friday's Expedition! This is a Bottlenose Dolphin with a Common Dolphin calf. Either the calf was adopted or kidnapped! No other Common Dolphins were near this pod of Bottlenose. The Common calf was swimming in this Bottlenose mother's shadow the whole time, and hanging out with other moms and babies in the pod! | Pacific Offshore Expeditions

The most EPIC Dolphin Stampede today! 🐬⚡️🐬⚡️🐬 We only see them of this caliber once every year or two! Just after 1pm we looked north and saw a mega pod of at least 1,500 Long-beaked Common Dolphin stretched out for almost a mile racing towards us. We all watched in awe as this pod off South San Clemente came directly at and then passed the Ocean Adventures heading towards San Onofre! Truly an amazing sight especially for our first time whale watchers on board this EPIC trip. #phenomenon #nat

New cooperative Dolphin feeding technique documented for the first time. While documenting this never before seen feeding behavior, I reached out to 4 different very experienced biologists/dolphin researchers. I wanted to get their input on the behavior, and also wanted to confirm that none of them had seen or heard of it before, they hadn't. The resident dolphins in St Pete, Florida use a few different specialized hunting techniques. The dolphins that master these techniques often spend a lot l

What an amazing Earth Day with a pod of killer whales near Catalina island yesterday! This pod consisted of two matrilines including the famous “Frosty” and a well-known female “Emma” who is most commonly seen in Monterey Bay. This is the furthest south Emma’s pod (CA140’s) has been documented. The large male is known as Ben. These killer whales are known as “transient” eco-type because they don’t reside any specific area and spend their whole lives transiting around although of course the furth

The 10am trip just exited the Dana Point Harbor when Captain Steve saw a pod of coastal Bottlenose just beyond Doheny Beach. We circled these ~10 dolphin for a bit before we headed farther out to sea where we came upon a pod of offshore Bottlenose Dolphin. Although they interacted with our vessel, Captain Steve said we can do better and whale checked our passengers - allowing them another time to come out on the water compliments of Dana Wharf Whale Watching.

Dolphin Adventure, Gibraltar (Yellow Boats) on Instagram: "Throwback to last October when we saw a super pod of common dolphins heading to the Southern waters of the Bay. 🐬 Did you know that common dolphins are one of the fastest swimming species of dolphin with the ability to reach speeds of up to 35mph (55kph)? It was a magical experience to witness so many swimming together, perfectly synchronised. 💙 #throwback #dolphinadventure #dolphinwatching #bayofgibraltar #magicmoments #commondolphins
