Only a few locales in the world can claim the whale shark as a native to their waters--Australia, Belize, and Cancun. Because they are migratory animals, those unafraid of their incredible size can swim alongside them only when the waters reach their warmest. In Cancun, the best month to experience the whale shark is during July and August.
The ocean water of Cancun is verdant with nutrients and life, and as such, the whale shark is abundant. Swimming with these creatures requires some training because although they are friendly and non-aggressive, their brash bodily movements should be identified, familiarized, and anticipated. Those who plan to swim with the whale shark are instructed on what to expect before being accompanied by experts on their snorkeling expedition.
