Watch this piece of footage of last year's Festival of Cultura del Caribe Maya on Isla Mujeres in Mexico.

Amazing Whale Shark Photography in Isla Mujeres, Mexico


Whale Sharks in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, is something that I've posted on twice in the past. A small island on the Riviera Maya, and once a sanctuary to Ixchel, the Mayan goddess of childbirth and medicine, Isla Mujeres is a top destination for visitors looking to find what few other places in the world can offer: Whale Sharks.

This picture shows how close one photographer got to this incredibly docile marine inhabitant, and even though the headline is surely an exaggeration (the diver is probably more to the right of the mouth of the Whale Shark than it looks from the photographer's angle), it's definitely worth a peak at a series of up-close pictures of this beautiful sea creature.

The 4th Annual Whale Shark Festival on Isla Mujeres

Hi there! So searching for fun, new things for my followers to do in Nayarit, Mexico this summer, I came across the 4th Annual Whale Shark Festival on Isla Mujeres. Taking place this July 15th through July 17th in Quintana Roo, Mexico, this festival is both a fun and meaningful showcase of Isla Mujeres. The island is beautiful and culturally rich, and has the need to raise awareness about it's fragile marine ecosystem. Click on the official webpage to see more about this very special festival.
