The mahi-mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) is a fast-swimming, pelagic fish renowned for its dazzling coloration that shifts from brilliant blue-green on the back to golden-yellow on the sides, often dotted with blue spots. Its elongated body, blunt head, and prominent dorsal fin make it easily identifiable; colors fade rapidly after death, so live sightings are especially vivid. Highly prized by sport fishermen and seafood lovers alike, it thrives in warm offshore waters worldwide.
