Itinerary
The Mexican Yucatan peninsula is one of the few places in the world where you can share the water with the largest fish in the world, the whale shark. This activity is a small group cruise where you will go out in search of these kind of creatures to enjoy a diving experience you will never forget.
After seeing a whale shark, you will have the opportunity to dive into the water and dive with it (weather permitting) to have an encounter with wildlife that few people can experience. The habitat of the majestic whale shark is found in oceans with warm and tropical temperatures; it moves peacefully through the crystalline waters along the Yucatan coast near Isla Holbox, Isla Mujeres and Isla Contoy during the summer months, feeding on the microscopic plankton that grows in this environment.
We will sail up to the north of Isla Mujeres approximate from 45min to 1 hour from Punta Sam, the boats are 33 feet and have 2 ecological engines, guides and certified captains, the boat is only for 10 passengers. The tour includes (light breakfast, fins, masks, life jackets, tube for snorkeling, water, sodas, sandwiches and ceviche aboard the boat). We do not guarantee the sightseeing.
