The sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) is considered the fastest fish in the ocean. It can swim at speeds of up to 68 miles per hour (110 kilometers per hour), making it not only the fastest fish, but also one of the fastest animals in the world.

The sailfish is a species of billfish and is found in warmer sections of the oceans worldwide. They are known for their distinctive sail-like dorsal fin and elongated bill. Sailfish are apex predators and feed on a variety of smaller fish and squid.

The sailfish's incredible speed and agility make it an impressive hunter. When they are feeding, they use their sail-like dorsal fin to herd schools of fish, making it easier to catch prey. Their elongated bill allows them to slash and stun their prey, making it easier to catch and eat.
