La Paz
Description
Baja California Sur is one of the few privileged places in the world to receive the largest fish in the ocean every year... The whale shark!
Enjoy living this experience in the Bay of La Paz where whale sharks feed on plankton and allow us to swim with them and observe their natural habitat up close from November 15 to April 30.
This wonderful animal can reach a length of 12 meters and the average is around 8 meters. It is an animal revered in many cultures of the Asian coasts due to its incomparable beauty and gentleness despite its enormous size.
This activity does not represent any danger to humans.
It is important to book in advance in order to guarantee getting a slot and entering the Whale Shark Sanctuary, as there is currently a very established code of conduct in place whereby only a limited number of boats can be in the area for a two hour period, and the authorities have access to the real-time position of each of these boats.
Guides and captains have to take a course and get certified every year.
The boat expedition will begin to the sanctuary of these beautiful animals to locate them and be able to swim with them, it can take from 15 to 45 minutes to find a whale shark.
In groups of maximum 5 people per shark accompanied by a certified guide at all times, you will enter the water to enjoy this incredible species.

We had a beautiful and unforgettable experience diving in Cozumel. Fernando explained everything in detail and accompanied us throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

A great place to find diving options. I had dived with them a few years ago, and I did it again this time—it was amazing, highly recommended.

I went diving with them in Playa del Carmen, and everything was perfect—the communication, the pickup, and the diving. Thank you 😊
