EliteTraveler.com reminds us that:<\/p>\n
From June 21 to 24, 2012, the charming island of Isla Mujeres, just off of Mexico’s eastern Quintana Roo shores, will host its fifth Whale Shark Festival. The annual celebration of these majestic creatures-affectionately known as “dominoes” for their spotted skin-will feature local cuisine, art, dance and, of course, the awe-inspiring opportunity to snorkel alongside the whale sharks.<\/p>\n
As many as 1,400 whale sharks make their way through the waters north of Isla Mujeres every summer, and the festival is the perfect opportunity to witness, marvel at and celebrate the graceful animals.<\/p>\n
