  2. Are you gearing up for swimming with whale sharks or snorkeling in La Paz? The majestic creatures are harmless and elegant. The gentle giants swim in the warm waters in search of food. Before your adventurous whale shark snorkeling or swimming in La Paz, let us find out some exciting things about these mysterious creatures.

  3. Some Facts about the Whale Sharks • The lower depth limit of the whale sharks is more than 1,900 meters (6,200 feet)! • Pregnant female whale sharks can potentially give birth to up to 300 baby whale sharks. The baby whale sharks have a length of approximately 60 cm (24 inches) at birth. The smallest ever baby whale shark was measured was 46 cm (18 inches) long. • The current population trend of whale sharks is decreasing. • In the last few years, you must have seen the whale sharks in three international films, like Finding Dory, KonTiki, and Life of Pi. What is Laser Photogrammetry on Whale Sharks? How can you calculate the length of a whale shark without touching it? The researchers and scientists use the Laser Photogrammetry technique to calculate the length of a whale shark. Laser Photogrammetry requires tools like an underwater camera and two parallel laser pointers (fitted together at a distance apart on single support). The scientists point the two lasers at the body of the shark and take photos.

  4. How should you Approach a Whale Shark while swimming or snorkeling? Are you thinking of how to approach the harmless and attractive whale sharks during swimming or snorkeling with them? It is not very complicated as these creatures are indifferent to our presence. But you should follow the rules of conduct to avoid disturbing the gentle giants. The whale sharks often dive deep if snorkelers or swimmers get too close. It can end the encounter for everyone and cause the whale shark to show unnecessary avoidance behavior. Here are some tips for approaching the gentle giant whale sharks: • Keep noise to a minimum when you enter the water. • Snorkel calmly and do not chase whale sharks. Approach the whale shark from the side to get the best view. If you want to enjoy an excursion for swimming with whale sharks in La Paz, contact Baja Whale Shark & Baja Charters today.
