The narwhal is one of the most unique creatures not just in the sea but in all the animal kingdom. A whale with a horn like a unicorn sounds like something out of a fairy-tale, but these majestic sea creatures are very real and quite a sight to behold!

Often called the “unicorn of the sea,” the narwhal is a fascinating Arctic whale known for its long spiral tusk (a special tooth!).

Narwhals usually have coloring of white on their underbellies with darker colors on the top half of their bodies, but with these 15 free narwhal coloring pages for kids you can make them any color you like!

1. Happy Narwhal Under the Ocean Coloring Page

Our first free narwhal coloring page for kids shows a happy narwhal having a great time under the ocean. Narwhals can hold their breath for a pretty long time and like to dive quite deep into the ocean, so for this narwhal printable I would use some darker blues for the background to show that this narwhal is taking a deep dive.

This narwhal coloring page features a cute narwhal enjoying a sunny day. The narwhal has a cheerful expression and a long horn on its head. What could this narwhal be cheerful at?

3. Beach Day Narwhal Coloring Page

This cute narwhal is catching some sunlight at the beach in this narwhal coloring sheet.

In this narwhal coloring page, we have another cute narwhal diving under the sea. He’s much nearer to the surface, so maybe some lighter blues for the background would finish this one off nicely.
