Alone With WHALE SHARKS in Bohol, Philippines

Join us on an unforgettable adventure as we spend an amazing day swimming with the gentle giants of the sea - whale sharks in the town of Lila, Bohol. Experience the thrill of being in the water with these magnificent creatures, as you swim and snorkel alongside them.
We were lucky enough to have four whale sharks almost to ourselves, as we arrived late and avoided the crowds. The peaceful surroundings made our encounter with the world's biggest fish even more special.
After a thrilling experience with the whale sharks, it was time for something more relaxing - stand up paddle board on the tranquil river Loboc. The peaceful and serene surroundings, combined with the tranquility of being on the water, made for a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.
Don't miss this opportunity to explore the beauty of Bohol and immerse yourself in its natural wonders. Watch this video now to see our amazing day spent swimming with whale sharks and stand up paddle boarding in Lila, Bohol!

    I believe they are there every day. But their number is not guaranteed, as some days there may be more and some less 😊

    They told us that ticket counter is open till 11:15, but we bought it a bit before, like 10:45 but I was flying with drone, so we took the last boat that is leaving at 11:30 😊 They have perfect English so it's no problem buying the ticket. But bring cash! 😁 I don't think there's a possibility to scuba dive there, only free dive as far as I know. No scuba divers were there
