About This Tour
This is a fantastic experience that only occurs from May to September. Swimming with the whale sharks is truly a memorable experience and the adventure of a lifetime! Our 32 ft. boat will offer you a smooth and gentle ride even in choppy waters Transportation, English speaking guide, snorkeling gear, light lunch, and drinks are included. Swimming with the whale sharks is a once in a lifetime experience! Our main goal is to find and swim with whale sharks, and our crew will do their best to achieve that, but remember the tour it’s in their natural habitat not in a park, They’re not trained or caged and you go to visit their home. You also don’t feed them so there’s no way to guarantee that we will find the whale sharks out there, even though we have a high success rate.
