The boat is 32 feet long and provides a stable ride even in choppy waters. The crew aims to find whale sharks, but sightings cannot be guaranteed since the animals are wild, not fed, and not trained. The tour includes snorkeling gear, a light lunch, snacks, bottled water, and carbonated beverages. Alcoholic drinks are not included. Sunscreen is prohibited in the whale shark area to protect the environment, so guests should wear long-sleeve shirts. Transportation on Isla Mujeres to the boat is not included. GoPro footage of the swim can be purchased separately. The tour is not recommended for those prone to seasickness. An environmental tax and dock fee must be paid in cash on the day of the tour.
Experience swimming alongside the largest fish on the planet on a whale shark snorkeling adventure, explore the caribbean sea in the search for whale sharks in their own habitat while spotting dolphins, manta rays and flying fish jumping and thriving along the way. From June to September hundreds of whale sharks congregate north side of Isla Mujeres forming the largest whale shark congregation in the world!. On this trip, you will have the chance to experience swimming alongside of whale sharks... the thrill that comes from snorkeling so close of the largest fish in the sea is just something you will never forget! After a 50 minutes boat ride aprox we will get to the area, once you reach the whale shark area you will snorkeling and swimming with the whale sharks; 2 people per turn accompanied by a certified guide at all times, Our idea is that you enter the water 2 times, however, it all depends on the sea conditions, how many sharks there are and your own swimming skills. They’re not trained or caged and you go to visit their home. You also don’t feed them so there’s no way to guarantee that we will find the whale sharks out there, even though we have a high success rate. Join us
