Your tour begins with pickup from your Tulum hotel early in the morning to begin the adventure. You'll enjoy hot coffee to help waking you up and arrive at Punta Sam to board the boat and begin the search for the coveted Whale Shark.
Once in the boat, you will enjoy a small snack consisting of a ham or chicken sandwich. This is something light so you don't feel heavy when swimming besides the whale shark. You will experience the warmth of the Mexican captain and his friendly crew who will make you feel pampered and well taken care of.
Once you spot the whale sharks, you will get ready to swim in pairs. You'll always go with a guide who cares as much about you as the beautiful animals. You will abide by the instructions they give you so that you can swim with them in the best way.
Later, you will snorkel at the reef. It is worth mentioning that the Yucatan peninsula’s reef is the second largest barrier reef in the world. To end with a touch of gold, you will eat a delicious fresh ceviche. In fact, they are going to prepare it right before your eyes. Then you will return to the port to board the transportation back to the hotels.
