About this species
Larger and stockier than the spinner dolphin, with a shorter beak and a more curious, investigative nature. Bottlenose dolphins are the resident pod at Shaab El Erg (Dolphin House) north of Hurghada and the species featured on most Hurghada and Sharm dolphin trips. They live in smaller groups (5 to 20 typically) and often approach boats on their own.
Where to find it
Hurghada (Shaab El Erg / Dolphin House) and occasional sightings off Sharm El Sheikh.
