Dolphin Stranded on Cleveleys Beach, Blackpool

Last Updated on: February 18, 2023
The dolphin was taken away in a wet blanket to be assessed and cared for

I heard a rumour yesterday that a dolphin had washed up on Cleveleys beach – I was doubtful, but here are some pictures shared by Joe Kennedy:

After trying to get the dolphin back into deeper water without success, the coastguard wrapped it in a wet blanket and took it away to care for it.

I do wonder if anything like this has ever happened on Cleveleys or Blackpool beaches before. I find it quite unusual, but maybe there are a few dolphins around.

If anyone has any further information or stories, do let me know.
