It's a Dolphin or porpoise.<br /><br />But as recently has last month, three great whites were spotted near a very popular surfing spot on the Orange County/ San Diego County Line. <br /><br />They didn't close the beach, or stop people from surfing. The Die Hards still surfed among the sharks. Amazingly without incident.

Re: Surfin' Buddy

KT is right...... look at its tail......it goes sideways not up and down.

Re: Surfin' Buddy

up and down would be a dolphin side to side would be a shark

Re: Surfin' Buddy

Lucky Jim, I ment which way the tail fins pointed not how it moved them. Either way whatever it is its big. And to think, I feel a little freaked out here swimming with muskies and turtles.

Re: Surfin' Buddy

perspectives ... <br /><br />surfer in foreground, closer to camera, which makes the surfer larger than he actually is in relation to the (gigantic finned beastie)<br /><br />lets assume 2 foot wide shoulders ... I would guess at least 7 shoulders long ... so somewhere around 14 - 16 feet , dammn BIG for a dolphin<br /><br />but on the puny side for a great white!<br /><br />not that THAT is all that great a consolation when you are on a floating serving dish!<br /><br />

Re: Surfin' Buddy

Shark tails are VERTICAL (up and down like a Carp's tail), while dolphin tails are HORIZONTAL (like a bird's tail), thus allowing them to walk or skip backwards across the top of the water.<br /> One other thing.......Dolphin's don't usually come in very close to the shore, where as sharks will. They go after seals who have been frightened out of the water by sharks and on occasion, acutaly launch themselves partially on to the beach, again going after a seal, for a meal. <br /> If that surfer had back-up lights on his surfboard, I bet they would be glowing. <br /> <br /><br />...Bob in Calif...

Re: Surfin' Buddy

Saw the picture before and some video that goes with it. The picture is one of a pod of dolphins that were "surfing" right along with some surfers. It is common for this to happen as dolphins are curious animals. Also water magnifies things so the Dolphin (look at the nose, Pectorial fin placement, dorsal fin shape and tail) is not as big as it looks.
