If you ever go to Belize - be careful. We were robbed while staying in the Placencia area by someone who broke in while we were sleeping. I woke up, so it was a terrible experience in addition to losing some of our things including my camera. Always stay in a place with a 24 hour guard and secure locks. (Our unit had a faulty french door locking system and no guard.)
If you look at the second photo, you can get an idea of the size of the whale shark. I don't think it was a baby, but I don't know for sure. They were huge. I saw a baby when we snorkeled with whale sharks in Belize - actually saw that one from the boat. It was much easier to find them in Mexico.
I have just been there recently and we had the pleasure to snorquel with 4 or 5 of these beautiful sharks. It is amazing. I am looking for ward to see my pictures and crossing my fingers that at least one came out good enough to post in Noah :-)

Great spotting! Perhaps you would consider adding this to a mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1607...

Is that a baby? Because it looks pretty small. Anyway I really like those things,there cool.

There are whale sharks in the Georgia Aquarium. These are awesome in the wild.
