Additional comments:
This whaleshark was very young only 2 meters long not more, I swam with it for about 10minutes, it was circling me at first and seemed curious then when other swimmers got in the water it circled them twice then started to swim away and dive. If this shark hasn't been sighted before I would like to name it "Magaladon" after the nickname of my girlfriend Magaly.
