Yes, whales and dolphins do sleep; however, they do not sleep in the same way that humans do. For example, while human sleep involves a period of unconsciousness followed by a period of conscious dreaming or REM sleep, cetaceans (whales and dolphins) show a pattern of unihemispheric slow-wave sleep, meaning that they only sleep with one half of their brain at a time. This allows them to remain aware of their surroundings and continue to surface for air, even while sleeping.

Whales and other water-dwelling mammals such as dolphins are concious breathers. This means they must make a concious effort to swim to the surface to get air. This is opposite to humans, as the brain controls breathing. Whales and dolphins instead let half of the brain sleep at one time, so the animal is never completely unconscious, but it still gets rest periods.
