Это место стоит 4 ч езды и раннего подъема. Эмоции зашкаливают. Лодочники помогают сделать фото и подплыть к рыбкам:)
Be sure to come in the morning....it's the only time of the day you get to swim with these wonderful creatures.
Let the guides take pictures of you and the butanding underwater. They know what they're doing. =)
A really good experience. Definitely something you have to experience yourself to understand just how awe inspiring these sharks are. There are mixed feelings on whether they should be fed and managed like they are, as it is said to interrupt their natural annual migration patterns but with the growing pollution and environmental changes along their migration routes anyway - with the protection they're afforded by the companies that deal with the sharks, it's hard to say. I'm still 50-50 as I don't know enough about the factors involved to reliably comment on it. A great experience to swim and snorkel with them though. The resorts are all fully booked at weekends, so plan ahead to avoid disappointment.
There was 4 of us, so we chartered a private car to drive from Cebu to Oslob. It was a thrilling and wonderful experience to swim with the whale sharks. We chose BCD Place. If you have your own mask and snorkel, bring it. The rental ones fit poorly and we struggled with them.
I took the bus down to Oslob from Cebu City in the morning and it took about 3 hours. Well worth it. I definitely recommend paying a little bit extra and actually snorkel with the whale sharks as you will obviously see them a lot better and its just an amazing experience.
