World Class Whale Shark Encounters

In July and August, whale sharks migrate to the tip of the Yucatan Peninsula and form the largest whale shark aggregation ever recorded.

Isla Mujeres is the perfect staging point for trips to the whale shark feeding grounds because it is easily accessible, close to the sharks and surrounded by warm blue water that make whale shark encounters that much more enjoyable and your images that much more spectacular!

 

 

Other Pelagics

Because Isla Mujeres is a pit stop for many other large pelagic species (as well as enormous whale sharks) it is sometimes possible to jump in with manta rays, sailfish and schooling golden rays. This is a destination that really delivers.

 

               


Leave Your Dive Gear at Home.

Because the whale sharks spend much of their time feeding at the surface, there is no need for us to use scuba which creates so much drag that it is tough to keep up with the sharks.

This encounter requires nothing more than a mask, snorkel and fins.

 

 

Why come with Big Fish Expeditions?

There are many operators that offer whale shark encounters once you get to the island. But, if you head out on a regular trip you'll get three jumps with the sharks that may only last a few minutes and then you'll be heading back to shore. If you'd rather spend hours out in the whale shark grounds and then sail directly back to your beachfront hotel then join me for the whale shark encounter of a lifetime!
