Whale sharks can grow up to 45 feet long (15m) and weigh up to 15 tons. Every year they migrate in large numbers off the coast of Yucatan Peninsula from mid-May to mid-September after a journey of over 6,000 km. Biggest fish and shark in the world, these gentle giants are harmless and non-threatening to humans. In fact, they even seem to enjoy interacting with these curious people who come to swim with them.Whale sharks can be identified by the pale white and yellow marks they have. These marks are unique for each individual whale shark, as fingerprints are to humans. The whale shark is a filter feeder with 5 large gill arches with approximately 3,000 very tiny teeth which enable them to process over 1,500 gallons (6,000 liters) of water each hour! Do not be afraid, it is impossible to be drawn into their huge mouth as their gill rakers consist of thousands of bristles of about 4 inches wide.Living in subtropical waters, it is possible to swim with whale sharks in several places on the globe like Australia, Mozambique, Philippines, Seychelles, Maldives, Thailand, Belize and Honduras. But nevertheless, it’s a few miles away from Holbox beaches that we find the largest aggregation of whale sharks in the world. More than 800 specimens gather to feed on the waters rich plankton, krill and fish eggs. This is an amazing and still not well understood phenomenon, since whale sharks are usually consider as solitary creatures.

In the south beaches of Holbox occurs a magic phenomenon better knows like bioluminescence, a spectacular event where the waters of the beach are illuminated by thousands of microorganisms that hit with waves. This event is all year but is more visible in April and November when the water is warmer. It is necessary to tell that it is possible to see the bioluminescence just at night.It´s the result of various compounds known as Luciferian, these molecules let to a few organisms produce light, for example, the fireflies and some species of jellyfishes.In Holbox, the microorganisms produce Luciferian that reacts with the Oxigen releasing energy, that we perceive as light. The same happens if someone touches the water while walks through it, you will be able to see a light trail crating around.

Enjoy the magical nights on the island living this unique 2 hours experience. Paddling through the BIOLUMINESCENCE with a stary sky, you’ll arrive to the famous sandbar. In there you can walk and play with the water making some cool activities. Then your guide will show you amazing constellations, planets, stars and satellites.
