Why choose this Cancun tour ?

Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure featuring the majestic whale sharks, world’s biggest fish. Take advantage of this seasonal phenomenon to get as close as possible to the fascinating creatures that migrate to the Cancun coasts every summer.

The eco-friendly, small-group tour starts with a convenient hotel pickup available from most hotels. Arrive at Puerto Juarez and enjoy a light breakfast before boarding the speedboat that will take you close to Isla Contoy to admire and swim with the amazing Whale Shark.

Get your camera ready as you approach the impressive whale sharks swimming near the surface gracefully. Better yet, prepare your life jacket and snorkel, and jump into the Caribbean waters following your guide. Swim after the stunning whale shark while maintaining safe distance, observing as the giant fish drifts forward.

After two hours of sighting and two immersions, make a brief stop at Playa Norte and swim in one of the best beaches in the Mexican Caribbean.
