About Oslob Whale Shark Watching
A guide for your morning with the whale sharks
Oslob Whale Shark Watching is an independent guide for everyone planning to see the whale sharks at Oslob in southern Cebu. Here you will find how the whale shark tours from Cebu compare, what the local rules ask of you in the water, whether a whale shark is a whale or a shark, what researchers have found about the feeding at Tan-awan, how to combine the morning with Tumalog Falls, Sumilon Island or the Kawasan canyon, how to get to Oslob from Cebu City, where else in the Philippines whale sharks are seen and which months are busiest.
The site is available in English and five additional languages. It is written first in English.
How we research
Every number on our pages comes from a source that we link to at the bottom of the page: mostly peer-reviewed studies of the Oslob whale sharks and of other Philippine sites, the Province of Cebu, natural history references such as the Florida Museum of Natural History and the Animal Diversity Web, with climate averages from NOAA. Information on tours, that is duration, languages, inclusions, and starting prices, is taken from the offers on GetYourGuide.
The whale sharks at Oslob come to boats that feed them, and researchers have studied what that changes. We report what the studies and the local rules say, and we tell you plainly what each listing states and what it leaves open.
How we make money
Oslob Whale Shark Watching is funded through the GetYourGuide affiliate program. When you book through one of our links, we receive a commission; your price remains the same. There are no advertising banners here, and we do not sell your data.
Who is behind it
Oslob Whale Shark Watching is run by Lukas Weber from Munich. You will find all details about the provider in the legal notice. The easiest way to send questions, comments, or corrections is to email [email protected].
