Bottlenose dolphins do not have a migration pattern defined which would take them from one place to another every year during the winter.

However, during winter populations of bottlenose dolphins living in North areas could look for southern temperate waters.

While bottlenose dolphins do not migrate in the summer, they move to different locations due to the change in water temperatures, which cause their common prey to move from one place to another.

In summer bottlenose dolphins do not have a particular place to go, they tend to travel and move around for food back and forth.

However, it is important to mention that dolphins travel a lot looking for food, covering sometimes more than 4,000 km in a month.

Dolphins can swim at speeds up to 25 miles per hour when they are in a hurry, although they usually swim at speeds of 7 to 8 miles per hour when they are swimming for regular tasks.
