Spinner dolphins are the acrobats of the ocean. In one astonishing leap out of the air, they can jump nearly 10ft (3m) and spin up to around seven times. Spinners grow 4 to 7.7 ft (1.2 to 2.35 m) long and weigh approximately 130 to 180 lb (59 to 82 kg). There are four recognized subspecies of spinner dolphin that vary in appearance and social structure. However, all spinners have long, skinny beaks and slender bodies with small curved flippers, and tall triangular dorsal fins. They prefer tropic

Spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) are small, tropical dolphins best known for leaping out of the water and spinning, a behavior scientists think can help with communication, play, and possibly knocking off parasites. Off the coast of Maui, they often follow a daily rhythm, they feed offshore at night on small fish that rise toward the surface after dark, then move into calmer, shallow bays during the day to rest in tight groups while staying alert. Have you ever seen them while on a boat

A spinner dolphin leaps into the air off the coast of Costa Rica. Why do spinner dolphins jump and spin? Display, communication and parasite removal are among the leading theories. Whatever the reason, it looks like great fun to me. This particular type of spinner dolphin found in the tropical eastern pacific has been recorded spinner 6 or even 7 times in a single jump! I used a gyrostabilsed camera system to capture this behaviour on a moving ocean. Filmed for my new show coming later this year

Jumping starts young in spinner dolphins. Why do spinner dolphins jump and spin? Display and communication is the leading theory. However, other species are known to jump in an attempt to remove parasites. If you look closely at the belly of this baby dolphin you can see a little pink fish clinging on. Perhaps this dolphin was trying to slap it off. I used a gyrostabilsed camera system to capture this behaviour on a moving ocean. Filmed for my new show coming later this year to @disneyplus #Epic

Fun fact: Hawaiian spinner dolphins actually sleep while swimming! They use half their brain to sleep and the other half to watch for predators and swim. Why didn’t we get that ability!? #prideofmaui #visitmaui #maui #spinnerdolphins | Pride of Maui

Here’s a baby spinner dolphin absolutely spinning his tail off to start the day. This is why they’re called spinner dolphins, those high-speed, mid-air twists aren’t just for show. Even calves get into it just weeks after birth. Researchers think these early spins help build strength, coordination, and social skills. It’s playful, yes, but also serious training for life in a fast-moving pod. And that life starts well before the first leap. Spinner dolphins mate year round in warm, tropical water

Do you know why these spinner dolphins travel in tight groups? 🐬 Spinner dolphins often travel in tight groups for several reasons: 1. Safety in numbers: Being in a group provides protection against predators. Predators find it harder to target individuals when they are surrounded by a large group. 2. Social interaction: Spinner dolphins are highly social animals. Swimming in groups allows them to interact, communicate, and engage in social behaviors like playing, mating, and grooming. 3. Effic
