Hilton Head's waters are home to a variety of dolphin species, and many tour operators offer excursions to see these majestic creatures in their natural habitat. It's a wonderful way to connect with nature and learn more about the marine life that inhabits the island's shores.

 

Dolphin Strand-Feeding

Dolphin strand feeding is a unique behavior observed in some dolphin populations, including those around Hilton Head Island. This natural phenomenon occurs when a group of dolphins work together to corral fish towards the shore, where the water is more shallow. Once the fish are close enough, the dolphins swiftly swim onto the beach to catch their prey before quickly returning to deeper waters.
