A pod of dolphins was observed on Wednesday near the shore of S'Amarador beach, as shown in a reels video shared on Instagram by the account @camclick.ph. The clip captures the dolphins swimming close to the coastline, providing rare footage of marine life in the area.
On the same day, two dolphins were also seen in the waters off Santa Ponsa. The images, taken from the shore, revealed the animals moving near the edge of the sea during a calm morning in this popular tourist destination.
Though dolphin sightings are relatively frequent in the waters surrounding Mallorca, each observation remains a noteworthy event for both visitors and locals of the Balearics. Such encounters offer valuable insight into the rich natural marine biodiversity of the Mediterranean and attract interest from wildlife enthusiasts.
Summer months tend to provide the best chances to encounter dolphins due to generally favourable weather conditions and increased sea activity. Occasionally, observers have mistaken dolphin dorsal fins for those of sharks, causing concern among onlookers viewing from a distance.
