    Isla Mujeres or Holbox for Whale Sharks?

    I will be heading down to Holbox in July for my fifth year in a row to swim with the Whale sharks. I have never done it from Isla Mujeras. Can anyone tell me if the boat ride from the dock to the sharks is longer or shorter from Isla Mujeras? It takes about 1 hour from the dock in Holbox.

    Breathing Pattern and Bouyancy Control

    I just returned from a trip to Mexico where I was fortunate enough to dive a couple of the Cenotes (underground caverns). What a fabulous experience but a true test of bouyancy control.
