Reiseverlauf
Ihr Abenteuer beginnt an unserem privaten Pier in Puerto Juárez. Bei der Ankunft genießen Sie eine leichte Kaffeepause, während Sie Ihren Fortgeschrittener und den Rest der Gruppe treffen. Vor dem Einsteigen wird Ihr Fortgeschrittener eine Sicherheitseinweisung geben, den Reiseplan, Reiseroute und nützliche Tipps zum Schwimmen mit den Walhaien teilen. Sobald alle bereit sind, ist es Zeit, das Boot zu entern und sich auf die Suche nach diesen herrlichen sanften Riesen zu machen.
Nach der Abfahrt von unserem privaten Pier in Puerto Juárez fahren Sie über das kristallklare türkisfarbene Wasser der mexikanischen Karibik. Unterwegs passieren Sie die wunderschöne Küste von Isla Mujeres, bevor Sie weiter vor die Küste fahren, wo sich das Meer in tiefe, lebendige Blautöne verwandelt. Halten Sie während der Reise Ausschau nach Delfinen, Meeresschildkröten, Rochen und Seevögeln, die häufig entlang der Route gesichtet werden. Wenn Sie sich dem Futterbereich des Walhais nähern, hilft Ihnen Ihr Fortgeschrittener, nach den ersten Anzeichen dieser prächtigen sanften Riesen zu suchen und die Vorfreude zum Teil des Abenteuers zu machen.
Sobald wir im Walhaigebiet angekommen sind, werden der Kapitän und Fortgeschrittener nach den besten Möglichkeiten suchen, sich diesen großartigen Tieren unter Beachtung aller Naturschutzvorschriften sicher zu nähern. Wenn Sie an der Reihe sind, begeben Sie sich paarweise mit Ihrem zertifizierten Fortgeschrittener ins Wasser, um ein unvergessliches Schnorchelerlebnis an der Seite der größten Fische der Welt zu erleben. Unsere Touren in kleiner Gruppe maximieren Ihre Chancen, je nach Meeresbedingungen, wildlebenden Aktivitäten und Parkvorschriften bis zu zwei Schwimmgänge pro Person zu genießen. Entspannen Sie sich zwischen den Schwimmgängen auf dem Boot und beobachten Sie die unglaubliche Action, wie Walhaie, Riesenmantas und andere Meereslebewesen sich in den kristallklaren karibischen Gewässern ernähren. Dies ist eine wirklich einzigartige Tierbegegnung und eines der unvergesslichsten Erlebnisse, die die mexikanische Karibik zu bieten hat.
Bei unserem letzten Stopp ankern wir vor dem weltberühmten Strand Playa Norte von Isla Mujeres. Dieser idyllische Ort ist für seinen weichen weißen Sand, das kristallklare türkisfarbene Wasser und die lebhafte Atmosphäre bekannt. Wir genießen ein typisch karibisches Mittagessen mit köstlichem Ceviche, cremiger Guacamole und knusprigen Totopos. Feiern Sie den Tag anschließend, indem Sie im seichten, warmen Wasser waten oder einfach am unberührten Strand entspannen und die Sonne genießen.

Overall disappointed with the trip. Our guide was fantastic but the main attraction was not a great experience. Amazing to see the whale shark but there were also 10 boats all on top of this one animal. Felt very rushed and dangerous in the water with so many people all on top of each other. I received several kicks to the face and was pushed under on several occasions by people all trying to get as close as they can to the animal. Very limited time in the water due to the amount of people surrounding the whale shark. Our guide noticed the dangers and was excellent at making sure we were as safe as possible under the circumstances. Snorkelling was also a bit of a let down. Reef wasn’t amazing and the sea was very difficult to snorkel in as it was very rough. Really strong currents pulling you. Wasn’t much wildlife underneath us. The stop at Isla Mujeres was okay. Not allowed to go onto the beach. Only float around near the boat while they make some lunch for you. Lunch wasn’t great. Overall the guide and boat crew were brilliant. Always checking if you are okay while travelling to the sites and if you needed anything. For the cost of the trip I expected a bit more and not 100s of people all crowding one animal.
Mr.T or Tlal was a great tour guide, he made the experience fun and easy, creating questions to make us critically think. Tlal answered all of our questions with authenticity and enthusiasm. 10/10 tour guide highly recommend.
Excellent in every way. Guides provided optimal opportunities for you to swim with these beautiful creatures. I went with my teenaged son and felt safe considering we’re in open sea. Great footage was provided too to make this a memorable experience.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you and your son had such a memorable experience swimming with these incredible creatures and that you felt safe and well cared for throughout the adventure. It’s also great to know that you enjoyed the footage—a perfect way to keep those special memories alive! Thank you for choosing Ocean Tours Mexico, and we hope to welcome you both back for another adventure in the future. 🌊🐋
This was by far the best experience ever! One for the bucket list. Our tour guide Pepe made the experience so enjoyable from pick up to drop off. His enthusiasm and passion was infectious, and he was so attentive and kind to everyone. It was the most incredible experience to swim alongside these beautiful creatures. They really are the gentle giants of the ocean. The trip was expensive but worth every penny. It was a full day, pick up 6.30am and back by 3.30pm, the schedule ran perfectly. Highly recommend!!!

Great communication upon booking. Picked me up from playa del carmen on time and I honestly had the best day I’ve had in Mexico! Vanessa was an incredible tour guide, so passionate and kind, along with Gato, Mazlon and Manuel. Despite the worries from the heavy rain and thunder increasing the risk that we wouldn’t see any whale sharks, we did! And we were lucky to have seen so many of them that we could swim 3 times! On my last swim I got to swim with a manta ray! I felt we got a fair amount of time to swim with them until they had swam out of reach/it was the next couples turn and the guide took videos for us too. I was initially nervous to be in such deep open water but once I was in I forgot all my worries seeing how beautiful the whale sharks are, and the flippers really help you to swim fast to keep up with them. The lunch and reef snorkelling was also really enjoyable. This will be a memory I will always remember. Thank you

A special thank you for recognizing Vanessa, Gato, Mazlon and Manuel. We’ll be very happy to share your kind words with the team! What an incredible day to enjoy three swims with the whale sharks and even encounter a manta ray on your final swim! We’re also glad you enjoyed the reef snorkeling and lunch and, most importantly, that you felt comfortable and well cared for throughout the adventure. Thank you for trusting Ocean Tours Mexico to be part of such a special memory. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience! 🐋🌊
We had the most amazing experience with Ocean Tours. Max is the best guide! He was kind, knowledgeable and made the entire day relaxing and fun! Swimming with the whale sharks has been on my family's bucket list for 6 years and we finally made it happen. Max and his crew were amazing every step of the way. My 70 year old mom went along and was unsure about getting in the water with the sharks, our Captain convinced her to give it a try with lots of positive reinforcement and Max guided her effortlessly to ensure she had a wonderful experience. Everything about the day was phenomenal! Not only did we get to swim with the sharks, we also got to swim with a few manta rays, it was majestic! I highly recommend Max and his crew for everyone who wants to have an amazing experience swimming with the whale sharks.
Thank you so much for sharing this incredible experience! We’re honored to have been part of making a six-year family bucket-list dream come true. A very special thank you for recognizing Max and the entire crew. It’s wonderful to hear how their kindness, knowledge and encouragement helped everyone feel comfortable, especially your mom. Knowing that she was able to join in and enjoy such a special moment makes us incredibly happy. Swimming with whale sharks is already unforgettable, but sharing the water with manta rays too sounds like a truly magical day! Thank you for your trust and enthusiastic recommendation. We’ll be delighted to share your kind words with Max and the crew, and we hope to welcome your family back for another adventure with Ocean Tours Mexico! 🐋🌊
This was a great experience with our fantastic guide Suly. It was obvious he cares a lot about the animals and the environment. Everything we needed was provided and we were very prepared heading out in the boat. We were able to jump and swim three times with the whale sharks, and we enjoyed the reef snorkel as well. The light lunch was delicious on the beautiful Isla Mujeres beach. Transport to and from the hotel was easy. Everyone I interacted with was professional and helpful. An awesome day!

We were picked up from our hotel complex by our guide Nils shortly before 6 a.m. Afterward, we headed to Cancun. Nils explained the daily schedule and also the snorkeling with the whale sharks on the bus. All guests who were a bit afraid were well spoken to and encouraged by Nils. Once we arrived in Cancun, we went out to sea on a boat with nearly 10 people. Upon arriving at the whale sharks, each of us was allowed to take turns getting into the water and snorkeling with the whale shark. It was a unique experience. Nils was with us in the water the whole time and supported us wherever he could. Afterward, we drove toward Isla Mujeres. Shortly before that, there was still an opportunity to snorkel. After that, we went to Isla Mujeres, where we got a small but very good lunch on board. After approx. 8 hours, the excursion was over. Nils guided us perfectly through the day. I can definitely recommend the excursion and our guide.
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass das Schnorcheln mit den Walhaien für Sie zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis wurde und Nils Sie den ganzen Tag über so gut begleitet und unterstützt hat. Ihr Lob geben wir sehr gerne an ihn weiter! 🐋💙 Herzliche Grüße Regina | Ocean Tours
Incredible experience, it is very much worth it. A 10 for the guide David (he is a star who entertained us throughout the tour and was very responsible). A 10 also for Captain Dani and for Gio for navigating so responsibly and for the respect towards the animals. Thank you!
¡Muchas gracias por compartir su experiencia! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron de Chichén Itzá y que las explicaciones de nuestra guía hicieron la visita aún más especial. Agradecemos mucho su recomendación y esperamos recibirlos nuevamente. Saludos, Regina | Ocean Tours
This tour was beyond our expectations. We must have seen hundreds of whale sharks and manta rays. The experience was definitely worth the money. Mac was our guide and he couldn't have been more organized, courteous, helpful and professional. You could tell he truly wanted you to have the most spectacular experience. This was on our bucket list and it did not disappoint. Thanks for a great tour.
Thank you so much, David! We’re delighted that this bucket-list experience exceeded your expectations and that you got to see so many whale sharks and manta rays. We’ll be sure to share your wonderful comments with Mac. 🐋 Warm regards, Regina | Ocean Tours
