Live a once-in-a-lifetime experience and meet these majestic ladies up close!
Have you ever wondered what it is like to breathe underwater? Start scuba diving today!
Sharks have inhabited this planet for over 400 million years and belong to the oldest species known to humans. As apex predators, sharks are at the top of the food chain and therefore indispensable for balancing the marine ecosystem. When sharks are mentioned, many people see them as a threat because of stereotypical shark tales they have heard before, where sharks are described as man-eating monsters of the sea. At Dive Mike, we have a distinct opinion about sharks, and invite you to join us on two amazing tours, where you can encounter bull sharks or whale sharks, two shark species that could not be more different from each other.
Between mid-November and the end of February, female bull sharks, many of them pregnant, arrive at the reefs in front of Playa del Carmen. These sharks return close to the shoreline to give birth in the freshwater systems along the coast of the Riviera Maya. Their annual presence gives us the opportunity to take you on a spectacular dive to meet these majestic ladies up close. Find out more
From mid-May until mid-September, whale sharks come to an area near the islands of Contoy and Holbox to feed from the abundant plankton that forms in the ocean due to the warmer water temperatures. This annual occurrence gives us the chance to take you snorkeling next to these gentle giants. Find out more
Amazing Bull Shark Encounter I was impressed with how the staff really has a passion for sharks and educating people about them. I’ve done shark dives in several other places, and never had a company take the time to explain everything about the sharks and the dive like Dive Mike did. I highly recommend diving with them!
