It was about a 2 hour trip to the designated area for seeing the whale sharks/ diving areas. It took a while to find the whale sharks, but after a while of searching, we found one pup. A baby...only 20 feet long! We
jumped in the water and once you got into the water and you look down its like a bottomless area. You could stare down towards the floor in THE clearest water and still never see the floor...it was crazy. Anyways, once we got in the pup dove and we didnt chase it, because...well we were snorkeling! So I waited around in the water for a while and then apparently one was IN the area! So I look around and saw nothing... I yell out to the boat "guys where do you see it?!" and they responded "Its right in front of you cant you see it?!!!"So I go back under and look to the front and there was nothing! So I come back up for air and then went back down and turned around to notice a 30 foot Whale shark 3 FEET AWAY FROM ME!!! 3!!! I had to move to get away from its fins! At this point I am screaming like a woman giving birth, and probably giving birth to a turd. I am not even kidding! So I got some pictures and swam with them for a while. It was very intimidating to swim with these mammals. After swimming with the whales for a while I turned into shore to swim on the reef and checkout the sea life there, which was also pretty cool to see the rainbow fish and clown fish and all that jazz. I am exhausted, but until I get my pictures developed and set up on the computer heres a picture of one of the whale sharks! take it easy ya'll!
Peace!
