All I can say is "WOW!!!"

Thanks for posting this thread, Jorge!! Swimming with those wonderful LARGE creatures must've been downright breath-taking!! I still almost hyperventilate when I see the turtles at Akumal.... that whale shark would make my head spin around!

Jorge,

Looks like great fun! When we went to Holbox in March even the Flamigos were'nt there. Would love to swim with the whales. Have to make the summer trip. Jan and I will look for you on November to hear more.

What a great report. I so wanted to come back this August strictly to dive with the Whale Sharks. Maybe next year. Thanks for sharing.

what o recommend with kids its that parents take turns so there is always two adults for one children in the water ...i insist its all about how isyour kid in the water but with the tour guide and one of the parents at all time i think they will be safe

whale watching trips or the like

I am arriving in 18 days- are there any whale watching trips going on at this time (end of October)? I guess the opportunity to swim with the whale sharks has already passed...next time.
Thanks!

these were whale sharks not tiger sharks - vegetarians vs. carnivores

swimming with the whale sharks was super groovy!
