dolphin tours on hilton head

Dolphin Tours can be loads of fun. Imagine a pod of dolphins as your traveling companions while sailing around Hilton Head. Experience dolphins, not in tanks - but where they live in the wild. Watch dolphin behaviors that can be seen in only very few places worldwide. Dolphins are not only beautiful and fun to watch, they are an important part of a very complex and fragile ecosystem.

dolphin fun facts

1. Majority of small toothed whales are called dolphins.
2. A dolphin's dorsal fin is as distinctive as a person's face.
3. Dolphin's ancestors once lived on land and looked similar to wolves, although they were more closely related to cows.
4. Killer and pilot whales are considered dolphins.
5. At first glance, a dolphin's dorsal fin somewhat resembles a shark and has sometimes caused false alarms at beaches.
6. Dolphins seem to have been blessed with a well-developed sense of humor. Dolphins have been known to silently maneuver behind an unsuspecting pelican and snatch its tail feathers -- usually leaving the bird minus a few.
7. It has been suggested that the reason dolphins always seem to be grinning is that they understand our language and are patiently waiting for us to learn theirs.
