Details

Join us for a once of a lifetime experience as you snorkel with the biggest fish in the world "the whale shark". These 30ft long creatures will leave you breathless! After a boat ride to the mainland and a comfortable van ride up to Cancun, you will board launches to head just north of the city to the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea where the Whale Sharks have been congregating in the largest numbers anywhere on the planet.

These docile giants, who migrate to the area around early-June thru mid-September, can reach up to 40ft in length and feature huge "box like" mouths with which to trap plankton and marine life. You'll swim alongside these incredible animals, accompanied by your expert guide and become one of the privileged few to witness one of the most unique dwellers of the ocean in its natural habitat. A light continental breakfast included on the way to activity and a snack and drink provided after.
