Dolphin’s intelligence has been well documented and that must be one of the reasons why they choose to live in Gran Canaria.
Dolphins have no problems in finding sufficient food and as such they are lucky enough to dedicate the majority of their time to leaping and splashing about around the south of the island. This is a paradise for whales and dolphins. Of the 87 species in existence around the world, 29 can be found here. The Natura 2000 Network sees it as “the most ecologically valuable location in Europe”. In addition to bottlenose dolphins, visitors can also see common, striped and spotted dolphins.
