There are so many activities that can be enjoyed in the water while on vacation in Mexico; a short list will not do it justice. The fun can probably be separated into four different categories: interacting with wildlife, motorized water sports, non-motorized water sports, and fishing.
One of the most unforgettable experiences you may ever have is having a close encounter with a whale in its natural habitat. Whale watching has become a huge business in Mexico and thousands of people every year turn out to tour local Mexican waters to see humpback whales frolic in the ocean. This activity is more prevalent on the Pacific coast, but there are also tours on the Caribbean side of Mexico. In a similar vein, swimming with dolphins has become an exciting experience in many locales in Mexico and swimming with manta rays is a growing industry as well.
