To truly appreciate this magnificent animal, there’s no better place than Isla Mujeres, where you can confirm their value not just once, but several hundred times over.
Isla Mujeres Mexico
Located in the Caribbean Sea just off the northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula, the waters of Isla Mujeres continue to play host to hundreds of whale sharks each year, in a phenomenon that scientists now think has been taking place for many years, despite its relatively recent scientific discovery in 2009.
For various reasons, I’ve never encountered a whale shark until recently. And boy, this wasn’t a whale shark encounter but a whale shark congregation!
