White-beaked dolphins are found in temperate and sub-Arctic waters of the North Atlantic, occurring over much of the European continental shelf and are the most numerous dolphin species in the North Sea (Hammond et al 2002). Most sightings in UK coastal waters are between June and October (Evans 1992).
