G I A N T S - Whale sharks of Isla Mujeres
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
The Yucatan peninsula is one of the busiest tourist destinations in the world and every year just offshore from Cancun, the largest fish in the ocean aggregates in vast numbers to feed.
This very special aggregation is one of only a handful of such known sites where whale sharks aggregate and it has turned into a valuable ecotourism contribution to the local economy.
Filmed on Panasonic GH4 and Canon 7D
For details on how this was filmed please see our website journal at www.viewfromtheblue.me.uk/blog...

@@flipdinero1638 Good to know, thanks man! I've done it before off Australia and can't wait to try it in Mexico.
Breaks my heart to see them damaged so badly, or sometimes purposefully killed. To me they are the most majestic of sea creatures, almost like the sea gods. They should be respected much more.
Whale sharks are cute to me. It's just they have huge mouths and beady eyes and it looks so derpy

I’ve swam with them both in the wild and in captivity. They are the most amazing animals on the planet. There’s no feeling to describe when you’re swimming and you look to one side and see their eye staring at you.
swimming with one of these was the most amazing experience in my life

@@waleeh9113 it was amazing.. I met a guy who owned a hotel in Thailand he brought us to an island early in the morning. We swam with them for a good two hours. Best part is it was all free. There were three of them, two adults and a younger one. They usualy come to feed in the morning and circle around these small islands for hours feeding. I could inbox you where it is but locals really want this spot to be kept secret as much as possible. I rented a car in Bangkok and drove all the way to the islands and one night I randomly found this hotel on booking.

Jessica M. Rocco From JUNE TO AUGUST , it's whale shark season in CANCUN. So if you want to swim with them, that would be the best time to go. Since they gather in the Caribbean area because it's rich in plankton during that time, they all gather there.

That was so beautiful to watch! Thank you so much for sharing! I was tearing up just watching how beautiful those sharks were! They’re truly a wonder and it’s saddening to hear precautions are taken to prevent harm to these creatures.
That was beautiful. Thank you
Great video!! Really loved it !

@メンマ Menma Arts I was asking you for proof. If anyone Google's about the history of Evolution, there are plenty of credible sources, like the History Channel, Stanford University, and National Geographic. Make an attempt to Google about evolution being untrue, and the results will actually still show why evolution is fact. Take peppered moths. They were originally light in color, however due to pollution from the industrial revolution, they turned to a much darker color. Birds saw moths less as a result, and natural selection allowed those that experienced the mutation a better chance of survival.
Excellent!
One of the most amazing experiences in my life was swimming with whale sharks

Wow thats amazing so beautiful its moth so big 😍
Other People: They are so beautiful Me: This voice is making me want to sleep
I almost cried watching this. They don't harm anyone... why harm them? They are so gentle and watching them is so relaxing. It would be a dream of life to swim with these fish.
2:37 destiny is that you be careful don’t bump it to objects
Stunning sharks😍😍
Biggest KNOWN fish
People are so evil how hard is it to a propeller guard so these Beautiful animals don’t get hurt!!!!!!
Can't understand why no prop protection, or why it's not yet illegal.... Ridiculous....
Hello! I represent a Real Estate company in Isla Mujeres, Isla Mujeres Luxury Homes. and we will like to add this excellent video to our blog. Will it be possible?. Thank you.
Marvelous
just did it¿ it was a magical and heartbreaking experience. they are such a wonderful and evoluted creatures
Swam with these 3 times now in Philippines. Only paddle boats allowed in the vicinity of where they will be.
Use boats with water jets no propellers required, same as jet skis!!
I hate when I'm just trying to watch a video on whale sharks and at least half the video is some BS about other topics.
Hopefully prop guards are mandatory now
Theyre adorable
I want to hug one
I love this sea
I’ve been to this island twice and didn’t know about this. What a shame

It's a Spotted Eagle Ray...they really are beautiful, so graceful to watch.
I swim with them every year, Isla Mujeres is much better than swimming with them in Holbox. The water is warm is clear as opposed to cold and green around Holbox. The biggest I saw was around 8m though apparently they get to 12m. Also you will see manta rays too. I recommend www.oceantoursmexico.com/tours/whale-shark-tour/ I have used them about 7 times already, they have noise reduction on their out-board motors and respect the rules for interacting with whale sharks.

yehha booiii
whale shark is big but his not that bit cuz whale shark can fit in aquarium

4:42 . . I bet that little fish swam home and poured himself a stiff one.
I’ve had the privilege of swimming with them right off Isla Mujeres. They congregate right in the area in droves to feed in the summer months. A reputable and responsible tour operator will only let you get into the water with a guide and will forbid you to touch the sharks. If you do they, will have you come back on the boat and will not let you in the water again.
whale sharks start at 2:38
he is look big but whale shark is bit big but blue whale is the biggest one in ocean
I love whale sharks.
Narrator sounds like Jeremy Clarkson
Creaking Skull
All the fishes hiding its survival of the fittest for them as well humans and animals lol that’s sad 😞
Ban any boat that does not comply.. Make laws that will protect these fish and if they are not followed take the boats away from the people That choose to ignore.
I want pet him but he’s so big
I believe megalodon was the same size of a whale shark
Comment to me if you have the same agreements that Whale Sharks look like Hot Pockets.
o.o
this dude can't pronounce spanish properly if it came to life and death LOL
Whale shark wants to be friends why is it getting hunted

The animal that's in 1:54 is most dangerous!
Blue whale is bigger than megalodon
