Pantropical Spotted Dolphin

Stenella attenuata

Description:

We often find these playful spotted dolphins when we're out looking for whales here in the beautiful Bay of Banderas, Mexico.

Habitat:

Spotted dolphins spend the majority of their day in shallower water typically between 300 to 1,000 feet (90 to 300 m) deep. At night they dive into deeper waters to search for prey.
