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.

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.
