In this activity, you will have a memorable time and you will live an incredible experience.

The Mexican Yucatan peninsula is one of the few places in the world where you can share the water with the largest fish in the world, the whale shark. This activity is a small group cruise where you will go out in search of these kind of creatures to enjoy a diving experience you will never forget.After seeing a whale shark, you will have the opportunity to dive into the water and dive with it (weather permitting) to have an encounter with wildlife that few people can experience.The swims can be 1 or a maximum of 3 times per couple, clarifying that depending on how much sharks are in the area is the number of times that the swim will be done. If we find less than 5 shark whale, we will make only the sightseeing.Later, you will have time to have lunch, relax and discover Playa Norte, one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. If we are lucky maybe we will watch dolphins and stingrays. With a maximum of 10 participants, the surface diving adventure with the Mexican whale shark is a unique experience that will leave an indelible memory for a lifetime.
