The Tour
Swimming with the Whale Shark, besides being an unforgettable experience, is an activity in which we mean to foster awareness and attention to the preservation of this species and marine fauna in general.
We will sail through the Mexican Caribbean in search of the whale shark, the largest fish in the world. It can reach the size of a bus and feeds only on plankton that is filtered through its large mouth. In spite of its imposing size, it is totally harmless and gentle. That’s why swimming beside it will be something unforgettable.
At the end of the encounter with the Whale Shark, we will set out for the beautiful Isla Mujeres beaches, where we will enjoy a light lunch, relax and prepare to sail back to the coast and board the transportations that will bring us back to the hotels.

Great swim with the whale sharks, was nice to be taken away from the huge crowd and to see the amount of care taken in making sure all swimmers and he whales were safe, on the way back we stopped 4 times once to watch a dolphin pod pass by and 3 times to collect rubbish floating in the sea! Would highly recommend, thank you!!
Great day at sea, but come prepared. The experience of swimming with the whale sharks was absolutely fantastic, our guide was a wonderful, kind, and warm guide – she was truly a joy. The crew was wonderful and made great ceviche, and eating it while standing in the ocean was awesome. Things to know: bring more money than they say to — if you want wetsuits (which I’d recommend) they’re $15 each. Bring Dramamine if you get even slightly seasick — you will be on (and in) the ocean for hours and it is out in the open sea, with huge, rocking waves. It takes an hour or so to get to the whales, so be prepared for that.
