š Swim with Giants: Bohol Whale Shark Tour with Bohol Transfers

Bohol is famous for its stunning landscapes, chocolate hills, and white-sand beachesābut few experiences compare to coming face to face with one of the oceanās most gentle giants: the whale shark. With Bohol Transfers, your adventure to swim with these majestic creatures is just a comfortable, guided ride away.
š What is the Bohol Whale Shark Tour?
The Bohol Whale Shark TourĀ is a unique opportunity to snorkel alongside the worldās largest fish in their natural environment. These gentle giants, locally known as "butanding", are harmless plankton-eaters and provide one of the most awe-inspiring marine wildlife encounters in Southeast Asia.
The tour typically departs early in the morning to ensure the best visibility and experience, and includes transportation, boat fees, safety gear, and a local guide who will help you get the most from your time in the water.
š Where Does the Tour Take Place?
While whale shark watching is more famously associated with Oslob in Cebu, Bohol has its own rising spots, especially near the southern coastal towns like LilaĀ and Loay, where whale shark sightings have become more common in recent years. These lesser-known locations offer a more peaceful and less crowdedĀ alternative, allowing you to enjoy the experience in a more sustainable and respectful way.
