Plz note actual date went to Cebu Island was on 6-9 Dec 2014. The expenses stated here was for 2 pax.

After a few days closed, the whalesharks watching site was opened. We woke up early cuz the whalesharks will appear on feeding time around 6:30am. We not gonna miss the moment cuz one of the main visit here was to snorkel with the whalesharks. We went there with habal rode (Budget 10: PHP200 for motorbike-taxi) suggested by Uncle Gilmore.

We ride on Paddle Boat due to MotorBoat are not allowed at this whalesharkes site.
Not to worry cuz the staffs were rowing the boat.
We placed our clothes in the shower room provided nearby and went for registration and short briefing regarding the appropriate interaction with the whalesharks. After payment has been made, they given us life jacket, snorkeling gear and we followed them to the boat. Locals pay PHP500 only. The cost for us (foreigners) is PHP1000 per pax for 30minutes inclusive of local guide, paddle boat ride, goggles, snorkeling gear and life jacket (Budget11: PHP2000 for 2pax).
