Mexico Whale Shark Trips
Swim with Whale Sharks in Isla Mujeres, Mexico!
Join us in tropical Isla Mujeres, Mexico, to snorkel alongside the largest fish in the world – the whale shark!
Each July, these gentle giants gather in the clear blue warm waters surrounding Isla Mujeres (offshore Cancun) to feed on translucent fish eggs of the Little Tunny Fish, along the continental shelf. This gathering has been noted as the largest whale shark aggregation worldwide! These huge creatures are often joined by mantas, mobula rays, turtles, and even sailfish; creating one of nature’s greatest spectacles!
During these trips, we maximize your swim time in the water to create the best wildlife interactions possible. We use multiple boats, ensuring your group onboard is small. Our boats are generally the first boats there and the last to leave, every single day. Because of this, we are able to offer countless intimate interactions with these massive, harmless, beautiful creatures. Additionally, since we are not diving, NO scuba certification is required!
To schedule your Mexico Whale Shark Trip, you can book directly through our online calendar below, or email us with any questions as well as have us reserve your space. If your interested in talking with us, please leave your full contact information in your email. Whichever way, we look forward to hearing from you!
