Swim with whale sharks, the largest fish in the world, and enjoy a delicious lunch on the waters of Playa Norte. A day trip to remember!

Activity Details

We'll pick you up from your hotel and head to the coast of the Riviera Maya, where you can enjoy a breakfast of coffee, fruit juice, pastries, and fresh fruit. With our energy replenished, we'll set sail in a speedboat across the Caribbean Sea.

As we cruise along, our expert guide will provide information about whale sharks' habits and lifestyles. When we spot them, we'll provide snorkel equipment so you can jump in and see them up close. Sometimes, whale sharks swim with their young, and stingrays may also be observed.

After swimming with the whale sharks, sandwiches and drinks will be provided on the boat. We will then sail to a coral reef for another snorkeling opportunity. Following the snorkeling, we will head to Playa Norte to enjoy the beach with crystal-clear water and fine white sand.

At the beach, a local lunch will be served, and a vegetarian menu is available upon request. After lunch, we will return to your hotel in Riviera Maya.

Itinerary Adjustments

Please keep in mind that the itinerary is flexible and pickup changes may vary.

Additional Info

Only a maximum of 2 jumps per person from the boat are allowed.When there are 5 sharks or fewer and more than 5 speedboats, jumps are not permitted; observation will be from the boat only.If swimming with sharks is not possible for reasons beyond the provider's control, there will be no refund, but a new date can be rescheduled.Snorkeling will take place as conditions allow, considering safety due to strong currents or poor water visibility.
