The annual migration of whale sharks is well underway again. Big groups are being seen around the tip of the Yucatan peninsula, about 75 miles (120 km) from Cozumel. There are only a few months each year when the world's biggest fish make their visit, so it's worth seeing them now, while you can. | ![]() Whale shark tour from Cozumel. |

If you're visiting Cozumel between March 11 and April 1, 2012, watch out for an extra hour time difference between Mexico and the United States and Canada. This happens because the United States and Canada change to Daylight Savings Time before Mexico and is especially important for cruise passengers, as some ships stay on the time of their United States homeport, even when they arrive to Cozumel. |
