Default Whale Shark Pictures!!

Well my wife and I just got back from a big family vacation to Mexico. While we were down there we were able to go on a tour where we swam with Whale Sharks in the ocean. Just thought I would share a few photos of these amazing sharks with you.





















Just so you know the guides that we were with said that this was one of the biggest Sharks that they have swam with. They figured it to be about 30-35 feet long.

Anybody going down to Cancun, I would strongly suggest this tour. It was an experience of a lifetime.

Very cool! However I'm not sure I'd be that brave to swim by something that big!
