For the first time, seeing these big whales with mouth opened as big as 5 meters did not fail to give chills to the bones!
Yet Butandings are harmless sea creatures feeding on plankton and small fishes. Swimming, snorkeling and observing them under water is fascinating and exciting!
We had a short briefing on precaution and safety before "the encounter" with these gentle giants.
Small boat paddled by boatman brough us to the crystal clear blue water where glimpse of these friendly mammals are remarklable visible.
Whale watching is only 20 to 30 meters away from the shoreline.
Life jackets and snorkeling gear is provided for our sake.
For the fearful swimmer, just hang on to your boat's bamboo floater. A safe position will allow u to see and get close to the whalesharks with no worries
It's now more than news or imagination for me. I was there! I experienced it first hand! And proud to have seen and swam with one of the most fascinating ocean creatures in my homeland, The Butanding or The Whale Sharks.
