Whales and dolphins are mammals and must breathe air to survive. Furthermore, unlike humans and other mammals, they are 'voluntary breathers', which means they must physically remember to go to the surface and breathe!

Depending on the species of whale or dolphin, lung capacity differs. But, they all return to the surface of the water, open a blowhole on the top of their heads (a watertight valve) expel air and quickly take in new before going down below the water's surface.

Through their blowhole.

What is a dolphin-like creature?

Dolphins are considered sea mammals, as are whales and sea lions.

Sea mammals live full time in the ocean (or in coastal waters such as bays), but have lungs and require surface air to breathe.

And unlike seals and sea lions, dolphins never venture onto land for more than a few seconds (while chasing down a meal) as they lack the flippers and other structures necessary to propel themselves back into the water.
