The Privateer combed along the drop-off 5 miles from shore and encountered a pod of ~300 long-beaked common dolphins! This nursery pod had lots of cow-calf pairs and guests got to enjoy seeing fresh babies swimming alongside mom. Females have a 10-11 month gestation period and give birth to a single calf that it about 2.5-3 feet long, weighing only about 20 pounds!
