About Donsol — Whale Shark Interaction

Un sito di interazione in acque libere nella provincia di Sorsogon dove gli squali balena si radunano per nutrirsi di plancton da novembre a giugno. Snorkelisti e apneisti si uniscono agli avvistatori locali su barche tradizionali per nuotare accanto a questi filtratori di 6-12 metri. A differenza di Oslob, l'esperienza di Donsol è completamente selvaggia e non alimentata, considerata più etica e naturale.
