Explore the vibrant coast of Cebu Province with a memorable day tour featuring captivating whale shark encounters in Oslob town, a visit to the pristine Sumilon Island, and a refreshing stop at the scenic Tumalog Falls.

Oslob, a coastal town on the southern coast of Cebu Province, is famous for its unique whale shark encounters, drawing visitors who want to swim alongside these gentle giants. It is also known for its laid-back atmosphere, rich marine life, and picturesque landscapes. 

With convenient transfers, the services of a helpful driver-guide, and the use of complimentary snorkeling gear and a life vest included, this tour offers a seamless and fun-filled adventure.

For a more exclusive and comfortable experience, you can upgrade your whale shark watching tour to a private trip, complete with flexible scheduling, personalized service, and convenient pick-up and drop-off at your accommodation within Cebu City.

Your day begins with a warm welcome from your driver guide, who will pick you up from your hotel in the provincial capital, Cebu City, for a scenic drive to Oslob town.

Along the way, you’ll stop at the town of Tan-awan for a hearty breakfast to fuel up for the rest of your adventure.

The highlight of your tour is the renowned whale shark encounter, where you can see these gentle creatures up close in their natural habitat. 

Once you arrive at the marine encounter site, you'll be provided with snorkeling gear and a life vest before hopping on a boat to the open waters. You can choose to swim beside these magnificent creatures or observe from the boat as they glide gracefully through the clear waters.

Your adventure continues at Tumalog Falls, which is nestled in a lush forest. Here, the water cascades over a rocky ledge in a misty curtain, creating a dreamy ambiance perfect for photography and relaxation. You can enjoy a quick dip in the cool, blue pool or simply take in the falls' mesmerizing beauty as you are surrounded by the peaceful sounds of nature.

You will also visit Sumilon Island, which is known for its wide stretch of soft, white sand and crystal-clear waters. It's the perfect spot for lounging, sunbathing, and swimming. You can also wander along the sandy shores, soak up the sun, or plunge into the gentle waves to explore the vibrant marine life in the shallow waters.

For lunch, you’ll stop at a nearby restaurant, where you can treat yourself to a satisfying meal before continuing with the rest of the day’s activities.

This tour also includes a visit to Oslob Heritage Park, where you can see remnants of Spanish-era structures by the sea. You’ll also pass by Boljoon Church, one of the province’s oldest stone churches, and the striking Simala Church, known for its castle-like architecture and religious significance.
