Oslob Whale Shark Watching Review

We departed from Arona Beach on Bonao Island for Oslob. We bought a ticket of 700 pesos at the Arona Beach Visitor Center, which is the green cabin in the picture below. We started at 5:30 in the morning. We got up very early, but the ship owner was always soliciting passengers. He wanted to wait until the boat was full. A boat could take about 150 people. It didn't leave until about 7:00. During the journey, the seascape was very beautiful and there was a chance to see dolphins. Arrive at Cebu Island in about an hour. Because the boat is relatively large, it can not be near the diving area. When the boat disembarks, there are local boats ferrying to the shore, but it takes 20 pesos for one person. Those who do not want to ferry can only jump into the sea and wade ashore by themselves. There are already many jumbos waiting for us on the shore. The jumbos here have to be driven by four people. For example, we can only carry a lot of luggage in our hands. One person from 20 pesos will drive you to Oslo whale shark viewing spot. The Turkish Turkish bus traveled for about 20 minutes, and the coastline was as pleasant as the blue sea and sky. It was 8:30 when it arrived. Next, I bought tickets. There were 500 pesos for whale shark watching on board, 1000 pesos for snorkeling. One person who wanted to scuba diving was told to bring his own equipment. Who traveled with his diving equipment? How many times, he had to give up diving and go snorkeling instead. Lease 100 pesos for frog shoes and 100 pesos for lockers. Change your clothes and have a car to take you to the real launching point. First listen to the lecturer to explain the precautions. You can't touch the whale shark from time to time. You must keep away from the whale shark. It is said that it hurts to be swept by the tail of the whale shark. The explanation is in English, which is barely half understood by me. Then there was a long queue. It was estimated that there were only 10 boats launching at the same time, each with 10 people. It was not until about 10:15 that we arrived and rowed to the whale sharks in a boat. The real viewing time was estimated to be only 10-12 minutes. We were lucky that day. There were seven whale sharks. The boatman said there would be at least three, and more often 11-12. Whale sharks are so huge that they deserve to be the largest fish in the world. They are of great use in underwater cameras. There are no whale sharks on display in many aquariums in China. There are only skeletons in museums. This is the first time that I have seen live whale sharks at close range. There's a trick. There are several boats that are specially responsible for feeding. Just keep up with those boats and you can see whale sharks. Happy shark viewing time soon arrived. The boatman rushed ashore in a moment. It was said that tipping the boatman could give him more time to watch. We planned to go to Sumiron Island near Oslob to play. We changed our clothes and drove 20 pesos and 1 person to the dock of Sumiron Island. The boat arrived at the dock at 11:00 and left. We had to wait for the boat at 12:30. It was not easy to see a whale shark. We were all on the way.
