Donsol Bay
Donsol, Philippines
Donsol Bay is often considered the best destination in the Philippines for observing whale sharks in their natural environment. Unlike Oslob, no feeding is practiced, offering more authentic and respectful encounters with marine wildlife. Between November and June, whale sharks regularly visit the bay to feed on plankton. Donsol also attracts divers and snorkelers looking to experience an eco-friendly interaction with these peaceful giants.
