Our experience was great and impressive in the whale watching in Oslob. The tour lasts 30 minutes and it costs 1000 PHP for foreigners, 500 PHP for locals and it includes snorkeling masks. The three of us were surprised how big are the whales. Apart from this, its very touristic the activity in my opinion!

It’s a controversial activity since they feed the whale sharks in Oslob. People recommend other places like Donsol in Sorsogon but so far we didn’t go there.
