What To Expect

Join us on this great adventure in blue waters!
We start meeting in our office which is located in the center of Isla Mujeres for check in where we will welcome you with a breakfast based on coffee bread fruit and juice. From there we walk to the boat where we organize the groups are 10 people per boat.
We begin a journey that will take about 45 minutes to reach the area of the world's largest fish the whale shark is based on 3 actions
search, sighting and the third and most important swim with the whale shark. Once found we will enter 2 people at a time to swim with the shark up to 2 or 3 dives per pair will have the help of a guide.
In the boat we have soft drinks, sandwiches and beers.
Once the whole group is satisfied we start returning to island women making a stop at a coral reef to practice some snorkeling
And we finish at North Beach where El Capitan will prepare a fresh ceviche accompanied by a beer. Although the chance of seeing whale sharks is very high, we cannot guarantee sightings.
We recommend you to wear comfortable clothes to pass them on.
