This is where it all happens, here in the Gulf of Mexico, a favorite destination with Whale Sharks during the summer months.
A sure rendezvous with this gigantic fish, measuring up to 18 meters in length and weighing up to 10 tons. It is usually a solitary animal, and is rarely spotted as a group. This is what renders this unique site in the turquoise Mexican waters so exclusive, it is one of the rare areas where you may get a chance to observe more than one specimen at once.
Even Jacques Cousteau only caught a glimpse of two in his whole lifetime! These temperate untainted waters attract the Whale Shark due to the abundance of plankton. While in the water with them, you will be able to admire their magnificence and observe at close range some of their peculiarities, as they gracefully move their checkered gray-white bodies through the waters.
