White Beaked Dolphin
Description |

Strangely,
the white-beaked dolphin may not have a white beak at
all - sometimes the beak is even black! In general,
those that live in the east of their range tend to have
white beaks whilst those of the west Atlantic have darker
beaks. This is a large species of dolphin, with a very
rounded body, and a tall dorsal fin in the centre of
the back. Their beaks are short and thick, and are either
all white, or white and black/grey. They have a black
or grey back, flippers, and tail, with a white or light
grey belly. The best way to spot this species of dolphin
is by the white patch on its back, which is just behind
the dorsal fin.
