From LilBeachBum: Which country is better for experiencing Whale Sharks? Mexico or Belize? Has anyone done either one or both to compare?
I’ve never seen any in Belize, Holbox Mexico during July and August has a slew, we saw about twenty around the boat and a few Manta’s however vis there stinks and they are mostly small (by whale shark standards) males. It’s snorkeling only and you must wear flotation, a shortie or wetsuit vest counts :) Bring a dry snorkel as you will be breathing hard!
If you have got the experience and bucks then the Galapagos in September on a liveaboard is your goal. Here they are schoolbus size very pregnant females and you are on scuba so you’ll have a better view. At Darwin island we were seeing a couple to five everyday.
