The official season for the Swim with Whale Sharks tour is May 15th to September 17th. Anyone offering to take you on a whale shark tour outside of these dates is running illegal tours.
-
Under current regulations, snorkelers are not permitted to touch the whale sharks. These tours are designed as eco-tours, and in order to protect the whale sharks and the participants, rules specify that snorkelers cannot go within 2 meters (6.6 feet) of the whale sharks. Beware of anyone who claims they will allow you to violate the rules. The Mexican Army is charged with enforcing rules and can detain non-compliant boats or boats violating the rules. No one wants to waste a day of their vacation or their hard-earned money on a spoiled trip.

Unlike most tours in other parts of the world, the density of whale sharks in the area nearly guarantees that you’ll experience an encounter. Last year, at least 99% of our tours encountered whale sharks, and we expect this year to be no different.
-
On average, the tours last year encountered between 20 and 50 whale sharks during the course of the tour.

Whale sharks are very docile creatures and pose no real threat to humans.

Due to the seasonal nature and limited availability of our tours, we can not provide refunds for tours cancelled within 30 days of the tour date. We highly recommend that you purchase travel insurance to cover yourself in the event that you must cancel your trip.
Cancellations received before the 30-day period will be issued a refund for any deposit paid minus a $20 per person handling fee.
If your tour is cancelled due to weather and we are unable to accommodate you before the end of your trip, we will issue you a full refund.

We cannot guarantee that your entire group will be together unless you make prior arrangements with us via email. Boat assignments are done the morning of the tour and depend on the number of tour participants and boats available. If you are in a large group, we highly recommend that you either make arrangements ahead of time or arrive early the morning of the trip and notify a guide of the size of your group. This way your guide can factor that into his planning and do his best to accommodate your group.

$150 USD
There are several prices and depending on who you are buying from, if you buy directly at your hotel you will be paying the highest price existing, the best is to buy with a direct provider, the ones that own the boat and the license for the activity that will guarantee the best price, but the cheapest price not always means the best quality service so you want to book with a very good reputable company and you are now visiting one of them so the average price is $150 USD plus transportation depending where are you staying, also get in touch with us and ask if there is any promotional codes available to book online.
