Whale Sharks Tourist Attraction at Oslob Philippines

Whale sharks are the largest shark, and indeed largest of any fishes alive today. They feed on plankton and travel large distances to find enough food to sustain their huge size, and to reproduce.

The small town of Oslob, has dedicated itself around the tourism of swimming with the whale sharks, and offer a guaranteed experience, of been able to swim with at least 2 to 3 whale sharks on any given day.

They have managed this by feeding the sharks shrimp from 5am to 11am every morning, and the whale sharks show up for a free feed, and have been doing this for decades, because of this, it has transformed the once quiet coastal town, into a buzzing tourist destination.

Oslob, Cebu is pretty sunny year-round but of course, given that the Philippines only has 2 seasons (dry and wet), it’s best to travel during the dry season (November to May). After all, you’ll be doing riding a lot of boats.

The weather during the months of December, January, and February in the Philippines are perfect because it’s not too hot to be out and about.
The town Oslob is on the southern tip of Cebu island in the Philippines and takes about a 3 hour car drive from Cebu City to get there.

Thanks for watching.

I lived in Hawaii and it's not as fun at you think it's actually terrifying

they are ginormous and I got out the water before joining the army so I took no chances with a real shark coming by
