Like Dominica, we are lucky to have several different species of
whale and dolphin in our waters, either resident in the area or
passing through. Some of these are :
SPERM WHALES - Mother and calf groups possible shared with Dominica,
St. Vincent and Grenada, but more research needs to be done to confirm
that these are in fact the same animals - according to IFAW, who
have done some research, they live here all year round.
HUMPBACKS, ORCAS, BRYDE'S, PILOTS and DOLPHINS, such as SPOTTED,
SPINNERS, BOTTLENOSE, RISSO'S, and FRASERS, also some (hard to see)
BEAKED WHALES, FALSE and PYGMY FILLER WHALES and PYGMY SPERM WHALES.
