About This Tour
EcoColors Tours has already more than 15 years of experience running whale shark Adventure tours! This great Adventure departs daily from Cancun during the whale shark season. The whale sharks come to the waters around Isla Mujeres, Contoy and Holbox to feed on plankton where the Caribbean Sea meets the Gulf of Mexico. You will have a remarkable opportunity to swim and snorkel with the gentle giant, in an area full of sealife. All our boats are lead by certificated and professional guides, who are naturalists and biologists and know everything about the area and the whale sharks!
