Overview
Experience the best of Cebu’s marine wonders in a single day! Join us for an exhilarating adventure combining Oslob’s awe-inspiring whale shark watching and Moalboal’s mesmerizing sardine run. Witness the majestic giants of the sea up close as you swim alongside gentle whale sharks in Oslob’s crystal-clear waters. Then, dive into the vibrant underwater world of Moalboal, where thousands of sardines create a mesmerizing spectacle. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to encounter two breathtaking natural wonders in one unforgettable day.
We recommend this day tour instead of having a full Moalboal tour (with Pescador island) to save cost and time due to the damaged coral reefs in Pescador island by typhoon Odette (Rai) last December 2021.
