from may15 - sept15, the whale sharks will be all over the yucatan peninsula of mexico including the gulf and carribean waters. mayan aqua dive offers you the opportunity to snorkel and swim with these graceful giants only 1hour from cancun.

we depart 7:30am in high speed, luxury shark boats to take you from cancun to the north side of isla contoy. we will give you 3hours to snorkel with the sharks. you will be presented with outstanding service, lunch and open bar.

also included will be a boat tour of isla contoy to observe the nature sanctuaray, turtles and pink flamingos, reef snorkeling and return to cancun no later than 3pm. if this is what you have been waiting for check www.mayanaquadive.com for further whale shark info.

we are a small but personalized dive shop, we offer courteous and professional service to provide you with the best tour in town, we had a 100% success rate with the sharks this past year.

transportation from playa del carmen and the riviera maya can be organised upon request. its going to be a great season!
 
Is this a "Looking for Mr. Big" Sea of Cortez action adventure?

I hear its great down there, maybe I will come.

..except I prefer not to be "snorkeling" with sharks, I'd like a tank.

Whats your success rate for Whale Sharks in the right season?..oh sorry, I see 100%, wow, impressive.
 
No diving with whale sharks allowed...snorkels only...
 
During the summer months the annual migrations of whale sharks sets in again, usually from the beginning of June until the end of August. :D :D :D

It is a world class experience, to be swimming that close with the largest fish in the world. The best place to have this incredible experience is by departing from Holbox Island, which is a small island in the Gulf of Mexico, but also part of a huge nature preserve. During the summer months there are not only Whale Sharks, but also Mantas, Turtles, Dolphins, Flamingos, Pelicans ...... its pure nature at its best.

The excursions actually start from the Riviera Maya with pick up from any hotel location early in the morning. If you leave too late the ocean will not be flat, and the animals tend to dive below the surface.

The whale shark safari offers a guarantee - yes thats right: the client will swim with a whale shark (mostly with many!) or money back (or the customer can reschedule). Now I call that a fair deal. The company that provides that service is Pro Dive Mexico - a National Geographic PADI Center located at the Riviera Maya.

You can take a look at pictures and videos at the site www.whalesharksafari.com - its an incredible experience for divers and non-divers alike. Any age, from 4-5 years on up, swimmers or non-swimmers alike, just fantastic.
