It takes 3 or 4 hours to take a bus from Cebu City, but it will be closer from Dumaguete City. Take a 45-peso crab boat at Sibulan Pier in Dumaguete City and arrive at Liloan Pier on Cebu Island in 15 minutes. Then take three rounds of electricity from the liloan pier, 250 pesos, 20-30 minutes to reach the oslob whale watching spot. Ticket price: Tickets are 100p/person, sightseeing by boat is 500p/person, snorkeling is 1000p/person, and deep diving is 1500p/person (diving certificate required). There are also some local travel agencies that have a whale shark watching plus Sumilon Island day trip itinerary. If Sumilon Island’s buffet lunch is included, it will cost about 600 yuan per person, and hotel pick-up and drop-off are included. The transportation is like this. Note: 1. Whale shark watching must be in the morning, and the time for sightseeing by boat is only half an hour. If you want to continue watching, you must buy a ticket again. 2. Since the whale sharks here basically float to the surface, they are usually snorkeling. Pay attention to sun protection, but sunscreen is not allowed here, so it is recommended to wear jellyfish suits (long-sleeved swimsuits) and do not feed the whale sharks. 3. When watching whales, stay at least 4-6 meters away from it and not touch it, otherwise you will be fined 2,500 pesos and imprisoned for 4-6 months. Play experience: Tan-awan town here was originally a small fishing village. A few years ago, it was discovered that whale sharks appeared in the shallow sea nearby. Later, the villagers fed whale sharks. Whale sharks were used to coming here every day for food, which formed a kind of "free range breeding". "Mode. The whale sharks here are very gentle, so don't be afraid. We set off from Dumaguete in the morning, and when we arrived at the whale watching spot, we saw crab boats floating on the sea from the shore. Due to the large number of tourists, it is necessary to queue up for the boat. I waited about 15 minutes and finally arrived at us! Get on the crab boat and start looking forward to it, where are you, whale shark, whale shark, did not drive far, and followed the direction of the boatman, and saw a big mouth open on the water! Very close! The boatman will park in a row with other crab boats, and everyone can go snorkeling and swim with whale sharks within the limits of their boats! But can't touch him! See it swimming near you, you have to take the initiative to avoid it. There are a lot of whale sharks in the morning. There are only 3 and 4. When this behemoth appears in front of you, you will not be afraid at all, just want to get close to it. When I was chasing one of them to swim, I was suddenly hit by the one from behind. I wouldn't be able to touch it, but it ran into me on its own initiative. I really feel lucky! The whole whale watching time is half an hour. Each boat will have two or three boatmen taking the initiative to take pictures for you. There are 7 people in one of our boats. If you tip him, he will certainly help you take more pictures. Children who can't swim can go to watch, because whale sharks will surface and have good visibility underwater. You can see the cute big whale sharks while sitting in a crab boat.

Rosseauwe went to Balicasag from Panglao. first we did dolphin watching which I wouldn’t recommend. The boats circle the dolphins and charge after them to get a better view. Balicasag itself has a wonderful diversity of fush and sea turtles. we saw sea turtles feeding and it was great! Took a video with my phone but the quality isn’t great!

EnjoyTripThe beach is so clear and clean, that you can also swim with small fishes. The island is just small that you can just walk around it. Though you really need to rent a boat going there from bantayan island but it will just take 15 to 20 mins ride. You have to be in your swimwear when you get off the boat since there is no docking area, so you have to be ready for your legs to get wet. You cannot bring food in the island because there is a corkage so you have to eat first in the boat.

The Oslob Seafari Resort is an accessible, tranquil, and huge beach resort in the municipality of Oslob. It has huge affordable rooms, a crystal clear sea, a white sand beach, a pool, and a great service. We definitely enjoyed our weekend there. I booked our stay for only P3000.00 last 2019. It is only a walking distance to the Whale Shark Watching center. You can also just ride a bus or a jeep to go to the Oslob Market or wherever within the municipal or the neighboring ones. #staycation#tripinspired#happynewyear

Nuestra Señora de la Immaculada Conception, popularly known as Oslob church, is considered as one of the oldest in Cebu. It was initially established under Boljoon in 1690 but eventually became independent in 1848 with the Immaculate Conception as its patroness saint. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

Near Oslob's #whaleshark watching is a #hotel called Seafari Resort Oslob. ✨ It may not be a known resort but it has a lot to offer. They have an infinity pool. They have great food, amenities, Sunrise and Sunset views, and great staff. I lived my stay there for 1 night. The rooms were huge, and it is only in walking distance from the Whaleshark watching. I definitely recommend this resort! ✨ #cebu #philippines #wintergetaway

Cebu South's #oslob is still one of my favorite places on Earth. I've been there twice already and I keep coming back. The old church. The Whale Sharks. The white #beach. The people. The ambiance. The Market. Oslob is just a town where you can go if you want to escape. ♥️ #cebu #philippines #wintergetaway

Oslob Oslob snorkeling and whale shark dance Oslob was originally a bland town, but full of vitality and world-famous for a visit to a behemoth. The whale shark, the world's largest fish, survives here. It is a must-see experience to experience the sea creatures with a body weight of more than 10 meters and a weight of 40 tons. In the course of the experience, the boatman can help with the whale shark and leave a unique memory in the deep sea. tips: It takes about 3 hours from the city to get to the whale shark in Oslob. It needs to go out early in the morning. Because there are too many people watching whale sharks, after arriving at the destination, they will follow the guide arrangement, pick up the number, and wait for the number to line up. Snorkeling supplies and life jackets are issued in the queue. During the peak season, waiting in line for a long time, please listen carefully to the number, always stand with your team members, don't leave without permission~~
