Description
Swimming & Whale Shark Watching in Lila Bohol
Who doesn’t want to swim with these gentle giants?!
In the small coastal town of Lila in the South of Bohol, it is now possible to do whale shark watching, and it’s tremendously popular. It is also quite controversial because whale sharks only migrate along Lila and Bohol and don’t naturally gather in Lila. The Lila whale sharks are hand-fed, guaranteeing they will show up to excite guests, who can snap close-range photos – the feeding only happens in the morning.
Tourists have to attend on arrival a short mandatory briefing on how to behave around the whale sharks.
Rules are strict, no touching, no riding, no flash photography, and keep at least six feet (1,5 meters) away from the whale sharks at all times.
Swimming with the whale sharks in Lila Bohol will be an experience of a lifetime!
Please note that the minimum participation is 2 guests.
