Melonhead Whales

Melon Head WhalesA small toothed whale by definition but really only the size of dolphins. Melonheads look very similar to a  false Killer whale but only growing to about 3 m in length.

Rarely seen in the bay, they may be more common than we know as they are generally up in the northern or western parts of the bay and being small would appear to be dolphins at first glance. Melon heads are usually observed in large fast moving pods.
