Butanding in Oslob

Be amazed as you experience swimming with the breathtaking creatures God has ever created.

In Oslob, Cebu where you can reach by land for approximately three hours from Cebu city, you will be able to amazingly find giant whale sharks or the so-called, Butanding (Rhincodon typus).  It’s an experience that you shouldn't miss especially if you are a type of person who loves adventure and outdoor stuff.

According to a reliable source, the management has recently changed the rate.

Before you dive in with the whale sharks, there are some guidelines that you need to follow. Some few reminders that I can still recall are the following:

- Keep your distance, they might hit you by their tail

- Always listen and follow to your tour guide's instructions for your safety

- Do not apply sunblock or any sunscreen protection to your body, its chemical content may harm them

If you are  a light traveler and some sort of a cowboy, you don't have to worry about feeding yourself. There are variety of food that you can grab for meal.

You can also buy some souvenir items for you friends.

Aside from water activities, you can also visit Oslob's old church and park. The view is so irresistible  that you would surely pull out your cameras and take pictures.

Historical Fact: According to residents, the church got burned in 2008.
