These whale sharks, which can grow up to 12 meters long, are a true wonder. They are graceful giants, and their peaceful presence will amaze you.

This activity does not represent any danger to humans.

The meeting point will be at 8:00 a.m. at Marina PICUS in Isla Mujeres, where you will enjoy a light breakfast and we will answer any questions you may have. After breakfast, at 8:40 a.m., you will board your private boat to begin the adventure and head east into the Caribbean Sea, behind Isla Mujeres, to swim with whale sharks.

After an approximately 50-minute boat ride, you will arrive at the feeding area, where you will spend between 2.5 and 3 hours searching for and swimming with whale sharks. Following regulations, water entries are done two people at a time, always accompanied by a certified guide.

On average, each pair completes between 2 and 3 jumps with the whale sharks; however, this may vary depending on sea conditions and the number of whale sharks present in the area.

And the surprises do not end there! If luck is on your side, you may even spot dolphins along the way or swim with huge manta rays.

After the adventure, you will enjoy a short snorkeling stop at a reef, followed by time to recharge. Enjoy shrimp or fish ceviche, along with fresh fruit, all with the stunning backdrop of Playa Norte, Isla Mujeres.

You will return to the Isla Mujeres dock at around 2:30 p.m.

As this is a private tour, the boat will be exclusively for you and your group, giving you more comfort, privacy, and personalized attention throughout the experience.

Do not miss this opportunity! Imagine sharing the water with these magnificent whale sharks. Ready for an adventure? Book online now and live an experience that will stay in your heart forever.

Best dates?
Around the full moon, whale shark sightings are usually more numerous.

However, any day during the season can offer spectacular encounters, as whale sharks continuously migrate through the waters of Isla Mujeres. Many travelers have had unforgettable experiences even outside these dates.

In addition, all our expeditions include a sighting guarantee from June 1 to August 31: in the rare case that no whale sharks are seen, you may return within the following two years, paying only the marine park fee.
