Reduced group Whale Shark tour

Introduction

Experience the thrill of swimming with whale sharks on this Reduced Group Whale Shark tour. Unlike other operators who put 10 to 15 guests on a boat, we prefer a maximum of 6 guests. This means you'll have more time in the water with the gentle giants, a better ratio of guide to guests, and a more personal experience. Our goal is to provide you with an unforgettable encounter with the world's largest fish.

What to expect?

During this tour, your guide will lead you to the boat where you will be equipped with premium full snorkel equipment. After a briefing about whale shark facts and biology, safety, and how to respect the environment and marine creatures, your experienced captain will navigate the protected area, searching for these magnificent creatures. You'll have the opportunity to swim with the whale sharks, and if conditions allow, you'll have a private and enjoyable experience by jumping with your companions only. The number of jumps depends on the conditions, with an average of 3 or more jumps for every couple.

Who is this for?

This tour is perfect for wildlife enthusiasts and adventure seekers who want to witness the awe-inspiring sight of whale sharks up close. Whether you're a seasoned snorkeler or a first-time swimmer, our guides, who are marine biologists or dive masters, will ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable experience. Families, couples, and individuals of all ages can participate in this tour, and the guides will tailor the experience to suit your specific needs and preferences.

Why book this?

This Reduced Group Whale Shark tour stands out from other operators because we prioritize your comfort and the quality of your experience. By limiting the number of guests on each boat, we're able to provide you with more time in the water and a more personalized encounter with these gentle giants. Our knowledgeable guides will accompany you throughout the tour, capturing photos and videos of your unforgettable moments with the whale sharks. Additionally, our guides' deep love for the ocean and marine life ensures that you'll receive a wealth of information and answers to all your questions.
