It's a Zoo Out There: Fins

Monday, October 18, 2010 by Mayor of Funville

I love the deep blue see and the marine life in it. As the Mayor of Funville it's my pleasure to share a few of Carnival's most exciting underwater shore excursions.

Barrier Reef Snorkel
Grand Cayman

Up Close Whale Watching by Zodiac
Los Cabos, Mexico

Of course, there's a world of wildlife under the water too. The whole family can enjoy it while snorkeling on this excursion off the shore of Grand Cayman. Kids as young as five can join in as you explore these shallow, protected waters. And there's plenty to discover, from waving sea fans and anemones to darting schools of tropical fish. If the kids think Finding Nemo is great on DVD, wait 'til they experience it in real life!

Turns out, the sparkly blue waters around the Baja Peninsula are sort of an interstate highway for whales. Humpback, gray, blue and sperm whales regularly travel and feed not far from the coastline here. On this excursion, you'll board a 15-passenger boat and head to these magnificent mammals' favorite spots. With a little luck, you'll not only learn about the whales, you'll practically also feel the spray from their blowholes and the splash of their fins. And that's one whale of an experience.
