Donsol is known as the “Whale Shark Capital of the World” thus, it is a popular tourist destination for whale shark watching and swimming with them. These gentle giants put Donsol in the traveler’s adventure map and in fact, every year, draws a lot of tourists from all over the world, visiting there to watch the abundance of whale shark in the bordering seas of Donsol.

Swimming with Whale Sharks (Whale Shark Interaction)

In 2004, swimming with these whale sharks was featured as the Best Animal Encounter in Asia by the Time Magazine. Since whale shark is the largest fish in the world, it is an extraordinary experience interacting with them and swimming right beside them.

Whale sharks found a home in Donsol because of its unusual quantity of planktons which they feed upon on and also for its tropical and warm seas. It’s been hundreds of years since the whale sharks occasionally inhabit this place, though Donsolanos thought that these animals are harmful sharks. It was only until January 1998 when a group of divers led by Romir Aglugub had the courage to interact and swim with them which led to prove that they are timid and safe.
