The Route
The meeting pointWe meet at Whale Shark Pier. We have a small briefing, give you the necessary equipment. Our boat and captain will be waiting to start our journey to find the whale sharks.
The swimming
The trip will take us between one and two hours and we may find different species on our way (if we see a giant manta and its behaviour permits it, we can also swim with this harmless creature). Once in the area, we will swim by the whale shark in groups of two plus the guide, for safety reasons, to respect these gentle giants, and to ensure you get the best experience.
Snorkelling
On our way back, we will stop near Cabo Catoche to snorkel the “cuevones” reef and maybe see sea turtles, nurse sharks, lobsters, squids, octopuses, and different reef fish.
Laidback beach & ceviche
Finally, we will go to Santa Paula, where we can stretch our legs, have a pleasant swim and enjoy the freshest ceviche made by our team. From this point, we have a 45-minute journey back to Holbox.
