WHAT TO EXPECT

If you’re staying in Dumaguete, you will be picked up at your accommodation or preferred pick-up location. You will then be dropped off at Sibulan Seaport, where you will take a 20-minute fast craft to Liloan Port. Upon arrival, a van will be waiting to transfer you to Oslob.

Upon arriving at the Oslob Whale Shark Watching Area, you will be directed to attend a briefing session. After completing the briefing, you will wait for your priority number to appear on the screen.

If your number is called, you may now follow the guide to the boat area. Please note that you will be sharing the paddle boat with 8–12 other tourists. The whale shark encounter will last for 30 minutes. After the encounter, you will have time to shower and change clothes before heading back to the van and proceed to your next destination which is the Tumalog Falls.

To reach Tumalog Falls, you will ride a motorcycle. Once you arrive, you can take a dip in the clear waters or capture photos of the breathtaking surroundings. When you're ready to leave, you will ride the motorcycle back to the van, which will take you to Bangcogon Wharf. From there, you will board a shared boat to Sumilon Sandbar, where you can enjoy swimming and snorkeling.

After 30–40 minutes, you will return to the mainland and board the van to the port. From there, you will take the available fast craft to Sibulan Port. Upon arrival at Sibulan Port, a tricycle or van will transfer you to your accommodation or preferred location.
