Bohol is the best place to go if you want to view whale sharks since there is an extremely high probability that you will do so there all year long. This places Bohol at the top of the list of places to visit.

The Chocolate Hills, Tarsier, and Alona Beach are among the most famous attractions in Bohol. However, were you aware that in addition to these well-known tourist attractions, they also provide something very spectacular deep inside the ocean? Whale Watching in the Philippines is it.

Lila, located on the island of Bohol, is a charming seaside hamlet that is well-known for being an agricultural center. However, many people are unaware that it is the habitat of a significant number of Whale Sharks, which are the largest living fish in the world. Due to the fact that they are not dangerous despite their enormous size, many tourists like getting up and personal with these animals. As we did this day.

Visitors are drawn to the town of Lila in large numbers due to the thriving tourist industry that is comprised of Whale Shark watching. Here, you'll get the opportunity to swim with some of the ocean's most majestic creatures and participate in a variety of underwater pursuits, including snorkeling, scuba diving, and even just plain old swimming!

It's surely a GoPro moment, and get fins on to really get up and close. You'll pay something like 1,200 Peso if a foreigner, or 750 Peso is a local Filipino. We booked using Taug Whale Shark Watching & Snorkelling in Lila which you can search for on Facebook.

Advice and Instructions
1. The first and most important guideline is that you should never give the Whale Sharks food. It is not a sustainable tourism practice, and the Whale Sharks could be harmed as a result, both in terms of their behavior and the possibility of injury.

2. It is highly recommended that you bring your own gear and equipment at all times. Goggles and snorkels are essential pieces of equipment for reasons related to personal hygiene, plus the included gear we had this day on our trip was old and sub-standard.

3. Try not to make too much noise. Whale Sharks can be easily frightened by loud noises, which could cause them to swim away.

4. Do not put your hands near the fish. It is possible for it to hurt or stress them out. It's one thing to have a chance to observe them up close during an encounter; quite another to interact with them in any way. Let them swim as they please!

5. If a whale shark comes close to you, maintain your composure. Maintain a safe distance of roughly four feet from the animal's head and thirteen feet from its tail at all times.

6. No sunscreen as that messes with the Whale Sharks feeding.

7. Avoid taking photos with a flash whenever possible. Bring an underwater camera / GoPro with you, but try not to startle the Whale Sharks by pointing it at them. This could cause them to flee the area.
