Isla Mujeres whale sharks

[DanDivesCR]

I stayed at Ixchel Beach Hotel Isla Mujeres - Isla Mujeres North Beach Hotels and went with Diving in Isla Mujeres & Whale Shark Snorkeling Tours with Mexico Divers which is located a couple blocks down from the hotel.

Isla Mujeres whalesharks are just simply incredible in blue water, not the greenish murky water of Holbox or La Paz. Check out the drone pictures, below. The white specks are boats. The whalesharks were as big as the boats. We spotted them after an hour boat ride.

It was in July 2017.

Below is my video of the trip. Mind you the crudeness of the video quality. I just learned how to upload my video into YouTube back then.

We missed each other for a few days. I was there for a long weekend from Friday, June 30 to Tuesday, July 4 (Independence day).
