Swimming with Whale Sharks Cancun | Mexico is Open for Tourism
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Did you know there were whale sharks just off the coast of Cancun Mexico?! We accomplished a major bucket list item while in Mexico- swimming with whale sharks, the largest fish in the entire world! Cancun, and this entire region of Mexico, is most certainly open for tourism, and we highly recommend this tour. There were so many whale sharks swimming all around us, we could hardly believe what we were seeing. If you find yourself in or around Cancun during the whale shark season, you should definitely check out this tour if it's open!
We went with the company DC Explorer and had a great time.

@@EmmaOfer aw! Ya! It felt emotional to me as well! :)
Wow that’s amazing, u are so lucky to have such an experience 👍👍👍love this so much❤️❤️❤️
This looks like such an incredible opportunity! I dont think I'm brave enough to ever do this... I'd probably chicken out right at the end 🤣
It was wonderful! There’s plenty of other (smaller) fish in the sea here though lol can’t wait to see more of it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing I have always been fascinated by the whale shark
Awesome video guys! Great job 🙋
I just did it in La Paz Baja Mexico! Was so amazing experience!!!
This looks incredible! What camera did your shoot with underwater?
We love swimming with the Whale Sharks!!
one of our favorite experiences EVER ❤️
Awesome video!!!!
Wow, so awesome you guys swam with the whale shark! I think I've only seen it in an aquarium 😄
I can’t even imagine an aquarium big enough to house them! although I know there are several throughout the world that do. They’re just so big and fast!
Awesome, my friends!
Thank you!
I've always wanted to do this!!! Maybe someday!!
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Amazing guy’s 👏👏👏🇲🇽
Wow !!! great job guys I really enjoyed the amazing view of this beach I have never swam with whale sharks😳 I hope some day😁
thank you! This region is incredible! We feel so lucky to have been here during the whale shark season! if we're feeling brave in November, maybe we'll get a chance to dive with the Bull Sharks 😬
So I'll be waiting next video with bulls sharks😉😉
Nice channel you got here! Keep doing what u'r doing! You will get big one day! :) ... I've watched like 20 videos already and will keep watching. Your 'special power' is diversity in the content you have, so keep moving, keep traveling to all sorts of places, that is like the thing that makes you guys being 'found'. :)
Looked a great video and can I please ask what the tour people were called and was it in Pattaya del Carmen.
Yes!!!! I can't wait to go whale shark diving here : )
Yesss!!! You’re going to love it!
You guys should try the cenotes.
We did! They were amazing!
I dove the cenotes and it was incredible! (dos ojos)
I could’ve literally ended my vacation at that point and been happy.

You forgot the most important thing. How much was it?
Do you guys have any recommendation about accommodation in Cancun?
Hi guys can we do Scuba diving or do you need certificate
Hi !! Which tour operator did you use for this amazing experience??
I would like to do that to.
W
would you mind sharing the name of the company you used and is it possible to have them take photos and videos for you since I want my main focus to be observing and enjoying the moment?
We just discovered your channel. Absolutely phenominal. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Where are you getting your music from?
Thank you so much! We get our music from Epidemic Sound 😊
Man I'd love to do this but I can't swim!!
I envy you, whale sharks are interesting creatures. I've never seen one. I've seen dolphins and alligators in the wild.
Head to Isla Mujeres between July and November and you’re guaranteed to see them! It’s about $130 but worth every penny 🙂
would love to but im scared of sharks coming
No don't be scared! Sharks are much less interested in humans than movies make us think. We just finished scuba diving with hammerheads a few weeks ago and they were very eager to get away from us 👍
Ahh this is a dream of mine! I love whale sharks! Is there a specific season that people should go to do this?
It was so amazing! The whale shark season runs June - September in the Yucatan Peninsula. I hope you get a chance to experience it!
Hi you’re video is awesome and informative. I may have missed it but can you give me the information of which company you went with or maybe provide their website. Thank you btw I’m going in August so this is a must do #1
Glad you enjoyed the video! We went with DC Explorer and thought they did a great job organizing everything. Hope you have a great time!
Hi! We're considering this... how long would you say you were in the water with the whale sharks? We've read that these tours have you get in and out of the water, so we're wondering how many times you were allowed in the water and the duration of time spent swimming with these amazing creatures. Thanks in advance!
It all went by so fast but maybe 5-10 minutes in the water. Only 2 people were allowed in the water at a time (plus the instructor). Everyone had the option to go in the water again but the water was really rough that day so 5 out of the 8 people on our tour were too sea sick to get back in the water. We would have loved to get back in for a 2nd turn but unfortunately the waves got the better of us 🤭 so whatever you decide I recommend taking Dramamine to improve your odds. Private tours are available with a higher price tag if you’re concerned about not having enough time. The quotes I got for private tours were about $800 for a two person tour though. Hope you get the chance to do this! It’s something truly special 💙
@@EmmaOfer you got that information for the private tour?
What is the name of the tour place for the whale sharks?
DC Explorers
Were you allowed to swim without the life vest if you wanted to?
no, it was mandataory unfortunately
no, it was mandatory. I'm not sure any of the companies will let you do it without. I think it's a liability thing.
@@EmmaOfer do i need to know how to swim?
Is that close to Contoy Island ?
I think it’s about 30km away! Pretty close
I think I would get scared and kick one of them lol
I wanna do this but what will insure me that a regular shark wont come out and bite my ass lol
Don’t worry! The other sharks aren’t gonna bother you! We went diving/snorkeling with Hammerheads in the Galapagos last month and they swam away the second they saw us. As our guide explained: “they don’t like the taste of plastic” 🤿😂
