Hi joe, my fiancee and I do snorkeling this July and it was a life time experience. We saw about 300 to 400 whale sharks in all the trip, about 10 manta rays, and a few dolphins when we came back to Isla Mujeres. We take pictures and video with them and was incredible experience. If you are going to Isla dont forget get in a tour, as much I know, season finish September 15th. :)
Can anyone confirm how the season is going this year?
 
I just got back as well. Plenty of whale sharks. We had anywhere from a few to 15-20 at any one given time. You'd be swimming along with one on to realize you were about to have a head-on with another. They were full grown whale sharks and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around their size.

Same here we did our whale shark tour on 7-29-11 out of Cancun.
 
Who is the best op to use out of Cancun? I prefer small personable ops that will let you capitalize on photo opportunities.
