Dolphins in Qatar

yeah i cant count how many dolphins i have seen on my last trip about 2 weeks ago, and there was a lot of young ones, last spring must have been a real baby boom season

It's really nice to see the photo. Last week i have seen 100s of dolphins in muscat and it's really amzaing site.

Wow you were really lucky to see dolphins from the shore. I did a boat trip from Muscat once and there was a group of around 40 or 50 dolphins swimming with the boat. The were smaller than the one in your picture though.

What porpoise would they have for coming here ?? :O)

Please re-confirm the statement that you actually took this photo or you have not got this photo from anywhere else. First of all, Dolphins will not survive in this weather and there are no dolphins in Qatar.

I saw a couple of them near Halul island (80km from Doha) from Helicopter while going to work...

for sharing this photos..

These dolphins go beaching only in fridays?:) they got day offs?) where is mesaeed, would wanna see them...

yes...is pretty normal....i have seen before.....maybe not so close to the shore....

I know... I see them at the Fish Market as well as FFC ;-))

get the facts first before commenting. there are dolphins, whale shark, and other marine mammals in qatar. Dolphins are a common sighting here, specially in al ghariya area. Seen them up close and personal, around 50m from shore.

Dude are you sure they are not sharks? :P

i love dolphins...........

This is an unusual sight here in Qatar. Please re-confirm the statement that you actually took this photo or you have not got this photo from anywhere else. First of all, Dolphins will not survive in this weather and there are no dolphins in Qatar.

From then on am carrying in a handcam but no opprotunity as of yet. you've surely done better.

Picardo.
