Whale Shark Snorkeling

Description

During summer, groups of the biggest of all sharks congregate in Caribbean waters near Cancun. Swim next to these giants in an out-of-this-world thrilling adventure you will never forget.

Whale Sharks are the largest fish in the world measuring up to 40 feet and weighing up to 15 tons. Fortunately they are totally harmless and peaceful as they only eat plankton and small fishes. During your vacation in Cancun you have the once in a lifetime opportunity to get up close to one of these amazing creatures.

While you are swimming with whale sharks there is nothing to fear. In this adventure tour, our certified staff will provide the necessary safety measures and interesting facts about these magnificent animals.

The whale shark, only comes to Cancun seawaters between June and September and because of their size never swims by the beach but in open waters. Our tour guide will lead the boat to the exact location point where you will be able to get off and start this amazing experience close to whale sharks.
