Swimming with Whale Sharks
Description
After picking you up from your hotel in Tulum at the scheduled time, we'll make our way towards the harbour in Cancun where the boat will be waiting for us which will take us in search of whale sharks. Ready for an unforgettable day?
Once we arrive at the harbour, you'll have some free time to grab a cup of coffee or tea. Afterwards, we'll put our lifejackets on and hop on the speedboat to begin this 2-hour experience.
Once we've spotted the first whale shark, we'll drop anchor, get our snorkelling gear on and hop into the water. If we're lucky, we'll even get to see them swimming with their young. Without a doubt, this is an experience you'll never forget.
After swimming around with these imposing and gentle mammals, we'll make our way to the coral reef area off the Mujeres Islands. There, you'll be able to go snorkelling to discover the amazing underwater world of the Mexican Caribbean.
Then, we'll sail in the direction of North Beach, considered by many as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. There, we'll delight in a tasty lunch which includes ceviche, Mexican totopos and a refreshing drink. What more could you ask for?
Finally, we'll return to the pier where we left off and hop back in the vehicle which will bring us back to the hotels in Tulum after 12.5 hours together.
