Throughout the year we see the bottle nose dolphins and delfin screw or volteador, and if the trip is made during the months of December and May in addition to the above we can observe several kinds of whales from which we whale humpback, sperm and pilot whales.

DOLPHIN NOSE OF BOTTLE

The body of the dolphin is perfectly adapted to aquatic life. In addition to having a hydrodynamic shape, the body of the dolphin was smooth and very flexible, allowing speed and grace in motion.

Distribution
The bottle-nose dolphin is a mammal cosmopolitan. It can be found everywhere in the world in temperate and tropical waters off the polar zones.

Color
In general, these animals have a gray on the upper body that will take up to it being a gray rosáceo as reaching the ventral part of the body.

Fins
The fins on both sides of the body are called pectorals and direct the movement of the animal in the water. The flap located in the spine in the middle is the ridge and is responsible for the stability. Finally the caudal fin is oriented horizontally and is divided into two lobes; And it is that drives the dolphins in the water.

Length and weight
Generally the males are larger and heavier than females. On average a bottle nose dolphin Atlantic reaches a length of 2.3-3.5 Mt and weighs between 136-230 kg.

Diet
The dolphins are opportunistic in their eating habits; Possess a wide and varied diet that includes fish, invertebrates and some crustaceans.

JOROBADA WHALE

The humpback whale is very easy to recognize: a sturdy body, fins and a large irregular rows of conspicuous knots carnosos-cada one of whom has one or two hairs erizados-en the tube and along the lower jaw. The shape of her body differs from other baleonópteridos, such as the fin whale: the head is wider and rechoncho and robust body adelgaza sharply towards the tail. The fins are also a distinción-angostas and about 1 / 3 of the total length of cuerpo-con waves irregular along the margin front.

CACHALOTE

The sperm whale is a huge rectangular head that can get as tall as a third of the total length of the body. Adult males can measure up to 18 m, and the females, smaller, 12 m. The groups of sperm whales are composed of mothers and youth of both sexes; The adult male stands alone most of the time. The sperm whale is a species that only ocean gets closer to the coast when it reaches great depths within walking distance of the same (continental shelf minimum).
