Cancun whale shark snorkelling tour

+1 photos
Snorkelling with whale sharks is a bucket-list experience, and with sightings guaranteed just off the shores of Cancun, you'll experience a close-up animal encounter like no other. You'll have two hours to snorkel in couples with these gentle giants who come to these waters from June to September to feed and mate.The morning begins with a light continental breakfast at our private marina where you'll then step on board our 10 metre fast boat to sail out to where you'll be able to snorkel with whale sharks. There'll be no more than 10 guests on board to guarantee enough time snorkelling in pairs, and once we reach the area, you'll have two hours to rotate swimming with these huge sea creatures.Next we'll drop you off at the picture-postcard Playa Norte beach, where you'll be able to relax and have a light lunch of ceviche directly in the shallow water. We'll then return to the marina on the mainland.
