Whale watching off Madeira
Channel: Bernhardtiner
Date: 2013-11-25

This swaying zodiac boat tour leads us to a beautiful group of about 30 pilot whales (Globicephala macrorhynchus) and bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus).
They are peacefully playing, splashing, blistering and floating next to the Atlantic's surface. It is pure fun watching them!
Starting at 1:38 in this video, in the background you may listen to marine biologist Luis Dias explaining how the whales are distinguished by their white-patterned dorsal fin ids.
