Itinerary

Swimming with whale sharks: an encounter with the noble giant of the Caribbean Despite its impressive size, which can reach 18 meters, the whale shark is a docile and gentle giant. It feeds solely on plankton, filtering the water with its enormous mouth, making it completely harmless to humans. Its docility is such that it allows swimmers to approach and experience a unique moment of connection. Each whale shark has a unique pattern of white spots, like a fingerprint. This pattern does not change over time and allows biologists to identify and track each individual. When swimming with them, you are not only experiencing an adventure, but also witnessing a protected natural phenomenon. The species is classified as "threatened," and we operate under strict regulations to ensure its conservation and well-being.
