Reviews: From Cebu: Oslob Whale Shark Encounter + Moalboal Sardine Run Snorkeling | Full-Day Marine Adventure

Sooooo cool! Yes, the drive is long and the snorkeling time is only 20-30 minutes, but it's all worth it! Whale sharks are simply amazing creatures, and even 20 minutes with them is worth the tiring drive. The sardine storm is also a magical phenomenon, and you can also see turtles in this same spot. This tour allows you to see all these wonders in one go! Our group consisted of only four people, although up to 10 travelers were booked. The guide didn't speak English very well, but he did his job well, taking us everywhere and getting tickets.

The company provides instructions in Chinese so that travelers can feel at ease. The staff are also very professional and offer rental of action cameras to help shoot underwater photos and videos, so you don't need to use your own mobile phone.
My second attempt at diving. The description said it would take 3 hours, but it actually took 1 hour and 20 minutes. I spent 20 minutes getting equipped in the office and then being briefed in the water. The dive lasted 40 minutes (my instructor seemed nervous and angry; I kept surfacing, and then he put more rocks in my life jacket). Overall, it wasn't bad; I'm even glad the dive lasted so long because I was really afraid of doing something wrong. The sardines were amazing, and I saw a turtle in the distance. Later, I went snorkeling and saw one too, but much closer. The remaining 20 minutes were spent changing clothes and sending photos and videos. I'm giving the instructor a "Good" rating for his behavior; it didn't boost my confidence; it only made me more nervous. Although he later said everything was great!
I've been waiting for a long time, but the price is reasonable :) When will I see whale sharks and turtles up close? In Moalbap, the instructor took a very good underwater photo with our phone, so it was very good. Satisfaction
