This dataset contains acoustic information derived from underwater recordings of a group of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) during a boat-based encounter on 1 December 2024 off Costes del Garraf (Natura 2000: ES5110020; Catalonia, Spain, NW Mediterranean). Recordings were made using a HydroMoth device (AudioMoth Firmware Basic v1.11.0) by the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC), with field support from Associació Cetàcea. The workflow relies entirely on open-source tools and is designed to ensure FAIR data publication in biodiversity repositories: media files and supplementary materials are preserved in Zenodo, while structured data are published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A) through GBIF.
