▲The Oslob Whale Shark attraction in Cebu Island is a very unique tourist attraction in the Philippines, famous for its opportunity to observe and swim with whale sharks up close. Located in the small town of Tan-awan in the south of Cebu Island, this attraction has become a place for diving enthusiasts and nature explorers in recent years.
▲Whale shark activity in Oslob is usually done in the morning because whale sharks are very active at this time. Visitors can snorkel or dive with professional guide and swim with these gentle giant marine creatures. The whale sharks here are accustomed to human feeding, so they usually appear close to the coast, making it easier and safer to watch and interact with them.
▲Safety Tips: When watching whale sharks, you should strictly follow the guide's instructions, keep a proper distance, and do not touch or disturb the whale sharks. Guests who want to swim with whale sharks should not apply any sunscreen. Please turn off the flash of cameras and mobile phones. Guests with heart diseases are not allowed to go into the water. They can sit on a small boat to watch. Please inform the guide in advance.
