What´s included in our Whale Shark Safari?Itineraries and Inclusions

Early in the morning, you will be picked up from your hotel, and we will drive you to the harbor in Cancun. From there we take a boat in direction of Contoy Island. This is where the whale sharks migrate every year to eat plankton. We will stay for about 3-4 hours in the open sea, snorkeling in turns of 2 people at once, always accompanied by a specialized guide.

If the weather allows, we will stop at Isla Mujeres, where you can relax at the picturesque lagoon. We serve delicious ceviche (local dish) and (non-alcoholic) drinks to you on-board before taking you back to the harbor and your hotel, respectively.
