• 4Excellent tour operator, whale watching is contrived

  What's hard to do with this review is to separate the tour operator (5 stars) with the actual whale watching (3 stars). I signed up for a group tour, but ended up with my own guide the whole time. She gave excellent service, from holding on to my belongings the whole time, to finding me a snorkeling guide (required) in the fish sanctuary on Sumilon Island, getting me on and off the correct boats at the correct time and even finding delicious buko juice when I needed the extra energy boost. Now, as to the whale watching portion, the whole atmosphere felt like I was going through a conveyor belt. My guide & I had gotten my ticket that morning. With the long wait, she decided we would go to Sumilon Island first. That worked out well, so that I didn't wait long to board an outrigger boat towards the whale sharks. A small boat is in the midst of the 8-10 outrigger boats and is tossing whale shark food into the water. This is what's attracting them to this specific area and allowing very close encounters with tourists (30 minutes). My expectation was very different. I thought we would go to Sumilon Island and if we saw whale sharks, we would stop and be able to be in the water (but not get too close to them; 100 yards is the law where I come from). I was conflicted about the whole process but I was told it was much worse before the government started regulating it, that the whale sharks were harassed and getting injured. I ended up participating and the closeness of the whale sharks was incredible (2 baby ones to start and 5 or 6 at the end), but I still wish for a natural, ethical experience.

• 5Whale shark tour.

  Cel and Efran were amazing they were very kind and helpful. Cel walked us through each experience holding our stuff and getting us started. The whale shark snorkeling tour is a must they are 5-7 meters in length and very close to us, with the water clarity it was breathtaking. Thank you both, Efran did a great job of getting us there and back safely:)
