Whales, Dolphins and the Marine Life of Golfo Dulce

Golfo Dulce is an important habitat for dolphins, humpback whales and other marine species.

Golfo Dulce is more than a scenic bay. It is an important marine habitat.

Humpback whales use these waters seasonally for breeding, calving and nursing. Dolphins are seen throughout the year, and the gulf also supports sea turtles, rays, sharks and many smaller marine species.

This concentration of life is one of the reasons Golfo Dulce has received international recognition as a whale and marine wildlife area.

Protecting it means protecting a living system, not just a beautiful view. Learn more about the wildlife of Golfo Dulce.
