Encounter rates (ER), relative abundances (RA) and seasonality were assessed for eight species. This information was combined with physiographic features of the seafloor to understand their influence on cetacean distribution. Data were collected along 189 surveys from January 2017 to December 2022. In total, 479 sightings of eight species of cetaceans were recorded. Striped, bottlenose and Risso's dolphins and fin whales were the most frequently sighted. ER and RA were similar or higher than in other areas of the Mediterranean Sea. Species were distributed differently according to physiographic features: bottlenose dolphins in coastal waters and Risso's dolphins and fin whales above the Garraf underwater canyon system. These results highlight the importance of the central Catalan coast, particularly the underwater canyon system, for at least four species of cetaceansThis research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors and was funded exclusively by Associació CetàceaWith the institutional support of the ‘Severo Ochoa Centre of Excellence’ accreditation (CEX2019-000928-S)Peer reviewedElsevierAssociació CetàceaAgencia Estatal de Investigación (España)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]202320232023info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/341067reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
