Whale sharks are around Venezuelan north coast and specifically nearby Caracas in a town called "Chichiriviche de la costa" here you'll take a boat and start navigating west with the best captains that will spot the whale sharks and you'll jump out of the boat to snorkel and swim with them.

Whale sharks are very peaceful creatures and they won't do anything to you, actually they often run away but if you're lucky they will stay hanging out with you.

Best months to snorkel and swim with whale sharks is between january and march that is where the waters reach the coldest temperature of the year and they go near the coasts.

If you decide to do this activity please don't touch the whale sharks and don't feed them.
