Description
The tour to swim with the whale shark
leaves early in the morning. We pick you up in your hotel and we sail on for one and a half hour to Cabo Catoche, where the waters of the Gulf of Mexico meet with the Caribbean Sea.
Here you can swim with the world's largest fish. They are not cetaceans, like the whales, or plummeted as sharks, and nor marine mammals, such as dolphins, it is a very big fish! also known as domino-fish due to their contrasting colors. With a little of luck we will also see dolphins, turtles and rays in freedom.
It is a unique and unforgettable experience! They come every year to swim in the rich waters of Holbox to feed on plankton and to prepare for their way back to South Africa.
