Animals in their natural environment are what me and Marcin find fascinating. They can impress, sometimes frighten but every contact with them is a lifetime experience.

Today we had a chance to dive with the whale sharks three times. First, we had to use a speedboat and swim very far from the shore. Fortunately, we had taken some seasickness pills before we embarked on our boat.
Then, we could jump into the water three times with our guide and swim with the huge whale shark.

The first diving was ok. I saw the whale shark but I was late and lost. During the second dive I found myself in front of a huge whale shark’s jaw. That was amazing.

However, the third and the final dive was perfect. I was so close that the shark’s tail touched me. I also stayed in water longer.

All in all, I think that everyone who likes water would enjoy this form of encounter. It is only necessary to find a reliable tour agent or company which specializes in whale shark encounters.

My and Marcin’s pick was Ocean Tours and they did a good job. They are professional and they turned whale shark experience into a profitable and well organized business. They care about SAFETY, COMFORT, seasickness tablets, snacks, drinks, gadgets. They finish the trip with nice lunch in shallow, turquoise water near Isla Mujeres. The sea there is incredible, even better than in Grand Turk Island.
