Snorkel with Whale Sharks nr Cancun

For the ultimate thrill seeker a snorkel with Whale Sharks experience is unlikely to be beaten. Whale Sharks are the largest fish in the Ocean and between June and September Whale Sharks are found in abundance at the Isla Che Reef, less than an hours boat ride from Cancun.

They swim very slowly, no faster than 3mph as they munch their way through 1600 gallons of water an hour sieving out their food, so it is easy for snorkelers to keep up with these giant fish.

The snorkel with Whale Sharks tour uses a high powered boat, is limited to just ten people per trip and is only available from June to September.

It can not be 100% guaranteed that you will encounter whale sharks on your tour. The Whale Sharks move where the plankton moves and are in the open ocean not in a pen. However, GPS coordinates are maintained and along with local knowledge the success rate is very high.

Please note Whale Sharks are not aggressive, unless you happen to be plankton or a tiny fish!
